2020 Speedway of Nations

The 2020 Speedway of Nations was the third FIM Speedway of Nations. The competition was scheduled to consist of a two-legged final but was reduced to a single leg because of heavy rain on the opening day. The Speedway of Nations normally also includes a semi-final stage, which was due to be run in Latvia in September. The semi-final was cancelled for 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the top seven nations from the 2019 Speedway of Nations were seeded direct to the final. Germany withdrew from the competition, and were replaced by the Czech Republic. The final was originally scheduled to be staged on 24 and 25 October 2020 at the National Speedway Stadium in Manchester.[1] but was rescheduled and held in Lublin on 17 October due to increased COVID-19 restrictions in the United Kingdom.[2][3]
