Leigh Adams continues his 2008 SGP campaign in Sweden tommorrow night, Saturday 24th May.
The Swindon captain currently sits fourth in the World Championship standings.
THE Ullevi Stadium has a proud history of staging top-level speedway having staged nine World Finals as well as three Grands Prix.
The last World Final to be staged at the Gothenburg venue took place in 1991, and was won by spectacular Danish racer Jan O Pedersen.
Its previous appearances on the Grand Prix schedule occurred in 2002, 2003 and 2004, and on two of those occasions the meetings were won by a rider taking top spot in a GP for the first time.
Leigh Adams finally broke his duck at the 2002 Swedish Grand Prix, whilst it was Hans Andersen's night in 2004 on the first time he had ever reached a GP Final.
The circuit will place its own unique demands on the riders as, at 416m it is the longest on the calendar and much bigger than several of the field face in their regular league racing.
And the overall standings are much closer than they have been at this stage of recent seasons, where the pattern has tended to show one rider making a flying start.
This year, Nicki Pedersen holds a narrow two-point lead over Tomasz Gollob, with Greg Hancock and Leigh Adams close behind after their strong performances in Leszno.
Sweden is also the first round of the 2008 SuperPrix, with the meeting winner guaranteed a place in the big-money shootout at Gelsenkirchen in October.
