In Grudziadz, the local MrGarden GKM defeated in the derby KS Toruń, but the riders from Torun gained a bonus point and are already sure of qualification for the decisive round.

 The third round of Speedway European Championships ended with the victory of Emil Sayfutdinov. Russian won with a maximum of points.

 Peter Kildemand will not start during the third round of Speedway European Championships in Swedish Kumla. Dane is struggling with a hand injury and is not able to take part in the competition on both Saturday and during Sunday's league match in Poland.

 In the historic tradition Kumla appears as a city of shoemakers, and the first mention of this place is from the first half of the nineteenth century. Formerly it was said that in Kumla is more shoemakers than inhabitants.

 Would you agree with the statement that competition in Kumla may appear crucial? It will be in Sweden much to gain, but also a lot to lose ... Last year during the third round of SEC in Holsted you obtained an advantage that allowed you to win the gold medal. Do you think there is a chance for a repeat in Kumla?
- It will definitely be hard because every rider rides in order to score a lot of points. Last year I was able to achieve a safe advantage, I hope that this will be the same. We'll see, maybe after Kumla I will be calm and I will start in the competition in Ostrow realxed. For sure I want to get the most out of these event to make my job easier in Ostrow.

 So far they met in SEC in four races. Sayfutdinov triumphed three times, Pedersen was better only once, but during the final in Torun. In the Polish league they start in one team, in Sweden last Monday they stood opposite each other again. Who was better this time?

 On Tuesday in Sweden the tenth round of Elitserien was held. Hosts won in all meetings and in every team we had a chance to watche riders, who will be fighting for another points to general classification of Speedway European Championships on the 15th of August.

 This season is very good for you. Are you fully satisfied with your results?
- I’m very satisfied that’s true, but I and the team are always working to do things even better and this time is the same.
