EDITOR’S NOTES

Reference: https://www.fimspeedway.com/events/togliatti/

Togliatti’s Anatoly Stepanov Stadium was transformed into one of the world’s finest purpose-built track racing venues in 2003, and is well known for hosting two kinds of speedway.
During the winter months, it is home to ice speedway, but the FIM Speedway Grand Prix series takes centre stage in the summer.
Togliatti first hosted FIM Speedway World Championship action in 2019, when Russian duo Emil Sayfutdinov and Artem Laguta famously won the FIM Speedway of Nations on home shale.
But last year saw Togliatti stage the country’s first-ever SpeedwayGP event, which delivered a huge home win from Laguta – a result which turbocharged his world title bid.
