Maniak works fine here.

Klindt now named as a wildcard instead of pedersen.

Wildcards for Nicki, Emil, Wozniak and Castagna. http://www.speedweek.com/speedwayem/news/125867/SEC-Challenge-Zwei-Ex-Europameister-sind-nominiert.html

Piotr Szymanski FIME jury president there, and Marek Wojaczek the ref. No suprise that Zengi got the 'OK' to go back to Poland.

They already do. Reinhard Kraenzler is the series doctor since 2016.

Shadrinsk and Togliatti will be back as well. Not sure about Astana.

Ice meetings are indeed not live. FIM always sends the FIM TV crew (Spain company, Interzona) to the ice meetings to film it, but they don't do live.

I will try to keep it all up to date: https://www.baansportfansite.nl/series/189/2018-speedway-grand-prix-kwalificatie.html More here: https://www.baansportfansite.nl/series

The ban would have been 2 years but as De Jong was caught with cannabis in 2010 it was doubled to 4 years.

Should be Pletschacher.

Few pics from practice today: https://www.baansportfansite.nl/nieuws/1518/wk-ijsspeedway-finale-3-en-4-in-togliatti-van-start-met-de-training-.html

Sportowefakty reports that the final will be held in Wroclaw over two days, June 8 and 9.

10 hours to go for Weber and Iwema. Crazy long trip. Seems that Weber had his name wrong on all his papers, he used Hans instead of his birthname Johann. Iwema had document issues as well. We fly out tomorrow; for those who want to follow live results: https://live.baansportfansite.nl/event/266/wk-ijsspeedway-finale-1-astana.html If there is wifi in the stadium we provide live streaming with Periscope as well.

Same for Iwema. Both are in Latvia, and will now go to Lithuania to cross the border (hopefully).

Weber is stuck at the Russian border: https://www.wasserburger-stimme.de/schlagzeilen/holpriger-start-ins-abenteuer/2018/01/30/

Ahh , yes.

Valeev seems to have broken his collarbone today in Ufa. Very much doubt if he will ride next week in Astana. Klabo is also already out for Astana with Svensson senior replacing him. Think its impossible for Pletschacher to make the trip to Astana to replace Valeev due to via and travel time.
