Yesterday was 45 years old when the Soviet team won its second medal in the World Team Cup. September 11, 1966 in Wroclaw, Poland, Viktor Trofimov, Igor Plekhanov, Boris Samorodov, Farit Shaynurov and Yuriy Chekranov (reserve, did not start) scored 25 points, and were silver medalists. Champions were Polish riders, team of Sweden - the third. For Viktor Trofimov and Farit Shaynurov it was the first medal of the World Championships.

In this issue of Speedway Racing Jonas Holmqvist article about a trip to Ukraine in June of this year, and experiences at stadiums in Lvov, Chervonograd and Rovno. In the last two, he went with a friend and at the races: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/833/frontoo.jpg/

The first official meeting of Viktor Trofimov - April 30, 1960. The final - at the age of 57 and a half years - 15 October 1995. And in 1995 he played with current riders, veterans were not there. That race was won by the son of Viktor Trofimov - Vladimir Trofimov, who collected in 5 heats 15 points, and Viktor Trofimov has won three heats, once finished second, and if not for problems in one heat with an engine, the result would have been different. But the 11 points scored was a good result, which allowed him to take 4th place.

I would rather call this team is not Russian, because it includes five acted out of eight riders Rovno. In particular, the son of Viktor Trofimov - Vladimir Trofimov, who started in all five meetings in England in April 1990, and has collected 41 points in them. Also one of the leaders of the team was Grigoriy Khlynovskiy, before three consecutive wins from Rovno "Signal" (1985-1987), As a coach, the championships of the USSR.

40 years ago, on 21 August 1971, Viktor Trofimov debuted at the Wembley in the race of the European final of the Individual World Championship. Besides him, in London were other Soviet riders Vladimir Gordeev and Gennadiy Kurylenko, as well as another rider Rovno "RADUGA" - Grigoriy Khlynovskiy.

In Lendava no fans of speedway? There are the full results of the race ending August 20? Some are there frozen ...

If it were not for that stupid principle of the UEM when the host pre-finals is already in the final, no team of Slovenia, Croatia and the Adria there would not be. I'm sorry if this team the Czech Republic, which is more worthy to be in the finals than the Adria. In Chervonograd even three - it was a good team.

At the final of Lendava perform against Denmark, Russia, Sweden and the team of the Adriatic - Adria, which will be reported riders Croatia and Slovenia.
