Mitas Moto Newsletter
MITAS MOTO NEWSLETTER #4 / 2020 Motorsport news Bartosz Zmarzlik is 2020 FIM Speedway World Champion Mitas rider Bartosz Zmarzlik #95 became 2020 FIM Speedway Grand Prix World Champion! With this title he became Polands first-ever double world champion after retaining his FIM Speedway Grand Prix World Championship in Torun, Poland. Zmarzlik becomes only the third rider in SGP history to win back-to-back championships, so a massive congratulations is in order! However we have to mention the 2nd and 3rd runner ups - the Great Britain icon Tai Woffinden and Swedish star Fredrik Lindgren. Interview with Valerio Lata, the 85cc FIM Junior Motocross World Champion in 2019 Valerio began racing in 2010, when he was barely five years old. Already in 2011 he won the Italian mini ‘50 championship. Ever since then he has kept his career moving forward and won his first world title in 2019 to become the 85cc FIM Junior Motocross World Champion. Mitas is glad that he has won this prestigious title on Mitas tyres. We have been talking to him one year after this great achievement. Photo credit: Claudio Cei mitas-moto.com 1 Can you tell us a bit about your early days of riding and how you got into racing? When I was four, I went to Latina with my parents to watch a motocross race because my father practiced it and it is still his favourite sport. On that occasion I tried a small motocross bike in the parking lot and I liked it so much that I started training and at the age of five I took part in my first race.

WORLD LONGTRACK FINALS 1971 – 1996 Tracy Holmes
WORLD LONGTRACK FINALS 1971 – 1996 Tracy Holmes Pre 1971 Before we look at the first World Longtrack Final in 1971, we must take a peek at its prototype, the European Final. The first of these was held in 1957 and won by the Norwegian legend Leif "Basse" Hveem. The term 'legend' is often thrown about like confetti but in this case, it is well earned ! The next 3 Finals were all won by West Germany's Josef Hofmeister. No-one was ever able to achieve the 'Triple Crown' in the World Finals, but 2 riders did it in its forerunner. Hofmeister was joined by another West German, Manfred Poschenrieder winning in '66, '67 and '68. The closest anyone got in the World Final was England's Simon Wigg who won the Finals of '93 and '94, only to be beaten in the Gold Medal run-off in '95 by his England team-mate, Kelvin Tatum! Swedish riders excelled in the Euro Finals, 1954 World Speedway Final bronze medalist, Olle Nygren took the bronze in the '59 Final. Ove Fundin, reigning World Speedway Champion at the time, was 2nd in the '61 Final behind Timo Laine of Finland. Just over a week later, Fundin won his 3rd World Speedway Final. Bertil Strid was Sweden's first Euro Champion, winning the Finals of '62 and '63. The Swedes were interupted in '64 by Denmark's Kurt W. Petersen. On the 12th of September 1965, Swedish star Bjorn Knutson won the Euro Final. A week later, he won the World Speedway Final as well.
