Line Up: Ulamek Andersen Gollob Sayfutdinov
Comments: Stopped. Andersen hit a rut trying to dive under Ulamek on bend 2 lap 2 and took him out. Andersen disqualified and race to be rerun with 3 riders. Nice to see Andersen showing concern for Ulamek rather than his bike. Superb first turn in the re-run from Sayfutdinov to keep it wound on and pass both Poles coming out of bend 2. Gollob wins the battle of the Poles by passing Ulamek down the back straight on lap 1.

Semi Final 1 - Re-Run: Lindback, Crump, Jonsson, Lindgren (FX).
Line Up: Lindback Jonsson Crump Lindgren
Comments: Drama at the start as Lindback's bike packs up and his team just about get another on track for him. Ref then doesn't let the tapes up. Stopped. Lindgren came off on the backstraight of lap 3 after hitting a rut. Crump had gone from second to last after twice hitting the same rut. In the re-run Crump gingerly (no pun intended ) freewheels round the first turn to stay behind Lindback, Jonsson has a real go on the last lap and almost snatched second on the line.

Semi Final 2: Sayfutdinov, Pedersen, Holta, Bjerre.
Line Up: Pedersen Bjerre Sayfutdinov Holta
Comments: Pedersen gates but wobbles like a novice round the first turn which lets Sayfutdinov and Holta through. Sayfutdinov almost clatters the fence on bend 4 lap 1 but holds on stay in front. Pedersen passed Holta bend 3 lap 1. Bjerre was that far back he was still on his last ride.

Grand Final - Re-Run: Sayfutdinov, Crump, Lindback, Pedersen (X).
Line Up: Lindback Pedersen Sayfutdinov Crump
Comments: Stopped. Pedersen clipped Sayfutdinov entering bend 1 lap 3. Sayfutdinov came down, Crump did super well lay his bike down but couldn't avoid ploughing into his bike. Pedersen disqualified. Super race prior to that with Pedersen, Sayfutdinov and Lindback passing and repassing each other. In the re-run Crump was in front until Sayfutdinov came under him entering lap 4. Sayfutdinov the winner, Crump second with Lindback third.

Comments:

Line Up Confirmed. Looks nice and sunny at the Ullevi Stadium. A fair few empty seats though A very good looking blonde haired lady is currently singing what must be the Swedish national anthem. It's not as catchy as DJ Talent but you can't have everything Can't really judge the track but it's a GP, it's Ullevi so it's bound to be slick, rutty and have more holes than the Belfry!!!
