In the Swedish Bauhaus-Ligan Tuesday’s competition, the Lejonen Gislaved team defeated Vastervik Speedway 47:43 at home. Bartosz Zmarzlik scored fourteen points.

Bartek appeared on the track for the first time in the third heat. He stayed behind at the start, but he quickly made his way to second place and set off in pursuit of the leader Gleb Chugunov. Both riders shuffled several times over the distance, but in the end the guest rider turned out to be better in this duel. Thorssell got one point and Miśkowiak was last.

Jakub Miśkowiak made a very good start in the sixth race. Bartosz Zmarzlik joined him on the first bend. Unfortunately, Miśkowiak’s motorcycle was damaged and the race ended in a draw. Two points were scored by Woffinden and one by Smektała. Bartek triumphed with a huge advantage.

The eighth run was Zmarzlik’s tour de force. He started from the first pole and led till the end. Behind him, a pair of guests arrived at the finishing line: Michelsen and Bellego. Miśkowiak was unlucky again.

Race eleven ended with Bartek’s third individual victory in this event. The leader of the hosts had a good start, but on the first bend he went too wide and Smektała took the lead for a while. Bartosz Zmarzlik, however, regained the lead quite quickly. Smektała fought off Hampel’s attacks for four laps. Thorssell finished the race without scoring. The fourteenth race was a double victory for Lejonen Gislaved riders. The duet: Bartosz Zmarzlik and Jarosław Hampel defeated a pair of guests: Mikkel Michelsen and Bartosz Smektała 5:1.
