Seems like Nawrocki tried every track/club to stage his Diamond thingy. Belgian club Heusden-Zolder was also asked lol.

Replaced by Jonas Andersson.

Weber his team will do it on Facebook.

Bauer senior is out according to someone on the German forum.

Any predictions? Both look realy tough. Sweden: M.Haarahiltunen, N.Svensson, F.Zorn, H.Weber, N.Toloknov, D.Valeev, A.Shishegov... maybe G.Bauer? Finland: O.Ledstrom, S.Svensson, D.Ivanov, D.Khomitsevich look certain... then S.Pletschacher, M.Niedermaier, T.Busch, J.Iwema, C.Ebner?

Part of the game indeed. Makes the wildcard nominations quite interesting though. Regular boys Simon and Klabo missing out due to injuries.

He is actualy replacing Philip Lageder. Andrej Divis is already replaced by Robert Růžička. Lots of changes in the lineups this year. The Czechs replaced 4 riders already.

Now confirmed by FIM.

Dinar and Nikita to Sweden Daniil and Dmitry to Finland

Koltakov was ill, that's why he wasn't as strong as usual. Makarov was already in the Ice Finals in 2014. I was hoping that he would qualify as well.

- Koltakov - 6 from each Qualifier - 2 FIM wildcards - 1 local wildcard

There will be some kind of Euro championship hosted by DTRA with events hosted in Holland, Spain and the UK. Not associated with FIM Europe for as far as I know.

It's not a World Championship, it's a World Cup. It doesn't mean anything. It's only partly organised by FIM, the same as the track racing youth meetings. Except the 250’s speedway which is a World Championship since 2 years.

Police report: The fatal accident occurred on Sunday, December 16, in the Satka district of the region. According to the regional UGIBDD, at about half past seven in the evening, at the 1713th kilometer of the Moscow-Chelyabinsk highway, the 32-year-old truck driver MAN did not cope with the snowfall and allowed the semi-trailer to drift into the oncoming traffic lane. The oncoming Volkswagen Crafter van crashed into the trailer, which was driven by a 54-year-old driver. Unfortunately, the man died on the spot from his injuries.

This is confirmed now sadly. Igor broke his ankle and will need an operation to fix it. His dad died on the spot. Other riders (Solyannikov) quickly arrived to help on the scene. It all happened in a split second with limited visibility, and an overtaking car. So sad
