Speedway: THE National Speedway Stadium, new home of the Belle Vue Aces is just under two months away from opening

The venue will officially go live on March 19 and will kick off the speedway season in Manchester with the prestigious Peter Craven Memorial Trophy.

A dash of Poland’s finest talent was added to the star-studded cast in the form of Polish internationals Maciej Janowski and Krzysztof Buczkowski, leaving one final place vacant.

No clues yetwho will join this mouth-watering programme of riders - a line-up that is already packing some serious fire-power from the global stage. All seven 2016 Belle Vue riders will feature, with the top five competing in the main event against the likes of Speedway GP regulars Chris Holder, Nicki Pedersen and World No.1 Tai Woffinden.
