On Saturday, June 12 the qualification rounds for the finals of the Individual World Junior Championships will be held. The competition will take place in Daugavpils and Gustrow.
Due to the restrictions related to the coronavirus pandemic, the qualifying round in Manchester was cancelled, therefore the riders will fight for promotion to the finals of the FIM Speedway U21 World Championship during two semi-final rounds.
Six riders each will advance from the two qualifying rounds. Then, the organizers will award three permanent "wild cards".
The finals of this year's competition will be held in Stralsund (September 4), Krosno (September 25) and Pardubice (October 1).
