 Round 8 of the FIM Speedway Grand Prix series returned to Boyans and the traditional home of Speedway in Denmark, the Boyans Speedway Centre. A capacity crowd packed the place out with a terrific atmosphere pre-meeting. Track had been under cover all week since Monday because of torrential rain in the build-up to the meeting and the covers came off on Saturday morning and left the racetrack dry and ready to race. The battle for the world title included the home favourite Leon Madsen who went into the meeting with Bartosz Marshalik challenging for the world championship title and that is still on after this event but Bartosz Marshalik the pole is a man very much on form. Also Emil Saifutinov and Jason Doyle a former world champion Doyle really back to his best but Saifutinov really kicking on and picking up 14 points from his five qualifying rides to get through to the final in some style. Madsen found it tough and failed to get through to the semi-finals. One point from two rides meanwhile Marshalik is nearest challenger for the world title kicked on and continued to push forward towards the semi-finals themselves. Freddie Lindgren in the mix once again and Antonio Lindback of Sweden having one of his best rounds in recent times really getting stuck in and riding quite beautifully. Terrific atmosphere the fans absolutely loving what they were seeing here at the Boyan Speedway Centre in Denmark and Saifutinov booking his place in the semi-final superbly. Who would emerge? Who would go through? Who would come out on top? Matty Zagar went wide and got some drive. World champions Wovenin and Doyle getting through to the semi-finals themselves but Zagar carved up the first semi-final he joined Saifutinov and then semi-final number two Bartosz Smarshalov kept his cool. Smarshalik then into the final did the business wasn't to be ruffled in any way shape or form and pulled off a fantastic win from gate one. Smarshalik now goes to Cardiff on 103 points from Saifutinov 94.
