NEW dates have been announced for the Speedway of Nations tournament, won last season by Russia (pictured).
Both semi-finals will take place in September at the Latvian track Daugavpils, whilst the Final, originally planned for Belle Vue in May, has been inked in for the end of October, still at the National Speedway Stadium in Manchester.
A statement issued today (Thursday) reads: "˜Amid ongoing concerns over COVID-19 (coronavirus), and acting on government health directives, the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) and BSI Speedway have taken the decision to revise the schedule for the 2020 Monster Energy FIM Speedway of Nations series.
"˜Under the revised schedule, both semi-finals "“ the 2020 Monster Energy FIM Speedway of Nations Semi-Final 1 and the 2020 Monster Energy FIM Speedway of Nations Semi-Final 2 "“ will now take place on consecutive days at Daugavpils, Latvia on September 25-26. The first semi-final moves from its original location of Landshut, Germany.
"˜The 2020 Monster Energy FIM Speedway of Nations Final is now scheduled to take place at Belle Vue, Manchester on the new dates of October 24-25.
"˜These decisions were made after careful consideration and consultation between the FIM, BSI Speedway and local organisers as the health and safety of everyone involved in the events remains our priority.'
