Ipswich Witches re-sign Emil Sayfutdinov ahead of 2024 Speedway season
He wants to win the league title with the Witches
The Ipswich Witches have confirmed former world number three Emil Sayfutdinov will ride for them for the 2024 season.
The 34-year-old says it was an easy decision to stay in Suffolk for next season and has his sights set on lifting the league title with the Witches: “I’m really happy to be part of the team again and I really enjoyed this year. "I hope next year will be even better and I have started to prepare for next season already. It was an easy decision; it was decided after the play-off final. I said I wanted to stay and get more experience next year.
“We will try to win the Knockout Cup again next year and we need to win the league, that is the goal for next year.”
The former European champion ending last season as the top points scorer in the division.
The multiple Grand Prix winner formed a strong partnership with Jason Doyle in 2023 and is hoping the pair of them can perform even better next season: “Doyley is a legend; he is riding really well in England and Poland, and he is a world champion and I enjoy riding with him.
"Some heats this year have been strong from us, and I hope we can do even better next year together. When we are riding together, sometimes he waits for me and helps me on the track, so it is really nice.”
