Swedish champion Andreas Jonsson blitzed to an awesome 18-point maximum in Malilla, but it was not enough to save Dackarna from a 45-44 loss at home to Indianerna in the Swedish Elitserien on Tuesday.
The Grand Prix star may be struggling to hit his best form in the World Championship, but his league results across Europe have been nothing short of sensational this season.
Jonsson proved unstoppable in six rides, but the Indians’ strength in depth paid dividends once again and even a last-heat 5-1 from AJ and Freddie Lindgren, who bagged eight paid 11, failed to save the hosts.
Polish international Rune Holta added seven for Dackarna and is now set to have some time off to rest his injured wrists during the Speedway World Cup.
Finnish hotshot Joonas Kylmakorpi was Indianerna’s star man on 10 paid 11, while Niels-Kristian Iversen accrued eight. Bjarne Pedersen added a solid seven paid 10 and SGP regular Antonio Lindback picked up six paid seven at reserve.
This result keeps the Indians top of the Elitserien, but Piraterna are just three points behind them in second after seeing off Vetlanda 49-41 thanks to an heroic display from World Under-21 Championship finalist Maciej Janowski.
He racked up 12 paid 15 from six races, while his mentor Greg Hancock collected 11. Swedish World Cup pick Jonas Davidsson contributed 10.
World No.2 Jaroslaw Hampel led the Vetlanda scorechart with 11 paid 13 points, while Swedish international Thomas H Jonasson bagged 10 paid 11.
Three-time world champion Jason Crump and Peter Karlsson both contributed seven to their side’s tally, but SGP star Janusz Kolodziej had a disastrous night, scoring just two.
World champion Tomasz Gollob dropped just one point for Hammarby as they won 49-41 at home to Lejonen. Lions’ Dennis Andersson was the only man to lower Gollob’s colours in four outings as the Pole picked up 10 paid 11.
Grzegorz Walasek led the Hammarby charge on 11 paid 13, while Magnus Zetterstrom tallied 10 paid 12 and Australian star Rory Schlein accrued eight paid nine.
With no Kenneth Bjerre, Chris Holder or Darcy Ward in the Lejonen team, Troy Batchelor was left to do the damage for the visitors and led from the front with 11. Only Andersson and Leon Madsen offered any substantial support with six apiece.
In the day’s other meeting, British racer Chris Harris topped the Vastervik scorechart with nine paid 10 points as his team triumphed 49-41 at home to Vargarna.
Peter Ljung matched Bomber’s score and Tomasz Jedrzejak recorded a straight nine.
Danish international Nicki Pedersen led the Vargarna resistance on 11, while Lee Richardson racked up eight paid nine.
