Media Coverage of the FIM Motocross Grand Prix of Sweden

UDDEVALLA (SWEDEN), 3 July 2008- The FIM Motocross Grand Prix of Sweden, to take place in Uddevalla on July 6th, will be broadcast live and delayed according to the attached schedule.


GLIMMINGE MOTORSTADION AND UDDEVALLA

The Swedish course in Uddevalla is located in a beautiful natural rocky valley, where the rocks become a fantastic spot for the many spectators attending the Grand Prix every year. The ground compost is intermediate while the track’s layout is technical and quick. At last year’s dry Grand Prix, De Dycker won the overall MX1 class and Cairoli the MX2.

Uddevalla is located in the province of Bohuslän, between Gothenburg and Oslo. The city has about 50000 inhabitants and its active port makes it one of the most important industrial cities on the West coast of Sweden. Gustafsberg is one of the top items in the to do list, as it is Europe's oldest seaside health resort –dating at the 18th century- and it is just South of Uddevalla.
