DANISH TALENT PEDERSEN MAKES PIRATES DEBUT IN 2027

Danish shooting star Villads Pedersen makes his Bauhaus Elitserien debut in 2027 after signing for Swedish side Piraterna.

Pedersen won the 2025 SGP3 event in Prague and the former 250cc star is now making his name in 500cc action.

After racing for Allsvenskan League side Solkatterna in 2026, he now steps up into Sweden’s top flight with the Pirates.

He said: “Thank you for the opportunity to ride for Piraterna, we look forward to our collaboration.”

Elsewhere, Denmark’s former FIM Speedway World Cup winner Mikkel Bech steps up his return to the sport with Rospiggarna in 2027.

After impressing for Valsarna in the Allsvenskan League, Bech is pleased to be back in Sweden’s top tier. He said: "I have long had the plan to return to the Swedish top league in 2027. I want to compete against the best and continue to develop. Now I am back for good, and the goal is to raise my level even more.”

Meanwhile, Lejonen has added Swedish young guns Eddie Bock and Albin Sigvardsson to their squad.
