Riders

2008 World Champion Nicki Pedersen was injury at 2009 Speedway World Cup Event 1 (undergoing skin graft surgery on burns to his left leg). On Monday 20 July he had operation. Pedersen said: "The wounds need to be completely healed before I get back on the bike, otherwise I could risk having problems for the rest of the season". At the Latvia SGP Pedersen will be replaced by first Qualified Substitutes Niels Kristian Iversen, Dane also.[3] The Speedway Grand Prix Commission nominated Grigory Laguta as a Wild Card, and Maksims Bogdanovs and Vjačeslavs Giruckis, both as Track Reserve.[4] The riders' starting positions draw for Grand Prix meeting was made on 31 July by Jānis Lāčplēsis, the President of Latvian Track Racing Commission.[5]
