I don't know who but there will be a rider from Birmingham looking for a new job in a few days!

Confirmation that Jason will not be at the Prague GP on Saturday. Max Fricke, as first reserve, takes his place: https://www.speedway-prague.cz/za-doyla-zaskoci-max-fricke/

Bjarne Pedersen currently holds the record, 22+1 on 22.7.2005 riding for Poole at Arena Essex. He had 7 rides which included a golden double scoring 4 when finishing behind team mate Matej Ferjan.

Not really an option as he is already riding in both Poland and Denmark.

I've just printed off the complete racecard using this link https://www.speedwayservice.at/images/racecards/2024/SGP2024-02.pdf

Up-to- date racecard now posted. Same link.

Jason is on the RS list: https://britishspeedway.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2024-Rising-Stars-iss2.pdf

No interest in this meeting apparently which is being shown live on BSN Both teams at full strength. Sam Hagon comes in to replace Joe Thompson as rising star for Leicester. Could be a close meeting.

Unlikely, I would have thought. Full details of the parade: https://www.itfc.co.uk/news/2024/may/05/bus-parade-on-monday/

Sam Hagon. List: https://britishspeedway.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2024-Rising-Stars-iss2.pdf

Journey time on Google maps currently showing 3 hours 24mins.

The regulations just say this: 011.3 TEAM LINEUPS 011.3.1 Premiership League a) the top rider (by MA) must ride at #1 b) the 2nd to 5th riders (by MA) can ride in any position #2-#5. c) the Rising Star rider must ride at #7 unless they achieve an MA which permits them to be in the top 5 then the lowest MA rider must ride at #7

Tungate's absence last night at Ipswich is being looked into by the SCB. No decision yet but could result in a 28 day ban for withholding his services. https://britishspeedway.co.uk/miscellaneous/scb-statement-rohan-tungate/

On a positive note, Pawlicki has scheduled his return for the visit to King's Lynn on 4th April: https://www.fimspeedway.com/news/pawlicki-set-for-birmingham-bow-next-week

Meeting postponed - waterlogged track. http://www.sheffield-speedway.com/news.php?extend.3442

It is now. https://watch.britishspeedway.co.uk/

I cannot find any details. I assume you have to sign up for the stream before finding out.

Not announced yet or, for that matter, has the BEN Fund yet.

This meeting takes place in a week's time. Strangely, there appears to be no mention of it on this forum or anywhere else much. It is, however, being streamed by BSN which is only reason I knew about it in the first place following their email. Does anyone know the format and who is riding as it might boost the number of subscribers to the stream. https://watch.britishspeedway.co.uk/

Just over 4 weeks to go. First names include Dan Bewley, Freddie Lindgren, Max Fricke and Luke Becker. https://www.fimspeedway.com/news/bewley-lindgren-fricke-lead-peter-craven-line-up

Does anyone remember Timmy Joe Sheppard, a young American who completed just one meeting for Hackney Hawkes in 1975. He was the subject of an earlier thread on this forum: https://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/51331-timmy-joe-sheppard/

I thought it an odd coincidence as well.

Injuries mainly. Those I know of include Dan Thompson, Jordan Jenkins, Alfie Bowtell, Connor Coles plus Steve Boxall suspended.

Programme started nearly 15 minutes ago. So far we've heard from Abi and Scott but no sign of Tatum or Louis yet.
