Speedway GP 2024: The road leads via Abensberg
SPEEDWEEK.COM provides this translated article advertising-free.
The road to the 2024 Speedway Grand Prix will once again lead through Abensberg this year, as the MSC traditionally organises one of the four qualifying rounds on Whit Monday. The others will take place at the end of May in Debrezin in Hungary, Lonigo in Italy and Zarnovica in Slovakia. The Challenge, in which the top four from each qualifying round will take part, will be held in Pardubitz in October as part of the big Goldhelm race. If there are no Czechs among these 16 riders, only the first three from a qualifying round will progress and there will be a wild card.
For the SGP2, the U21 World Championship, the club from Ludwigslust was awarded a qualifying round for 8 June. The other races will be held on the same day in Terenzano (Italy) and Macon (France).
MC Bergring Teterow, which missed out on the Grand Prix for the 2024 season, will host the two semi-finals for the SGP3, the 250cc World Championship on the speedway track, in its arena.
