After a long delay, with the rain over the Danish speedway track showing no sign of easing, it was decided not to run the semifinals and final.

The safety of the riders was the most important thing, race management said in the HBO Max broadcast.

The standings after 20 heats were used as the final standings. That means Briton Robert Lambert took the victory and is now leading the championship overall ahead of the final competition in two weeks.

The only Swede, Fredrik Lindgren, finished eighth.
