Continental Speedway final

The Continental final was a Motorcycle speedway final sanctioned by the FIM as the qualifying round for the Speedway World Championship between 1976 and 2000.[1][2]

From 1952 to 1975 it acted as the final qualifier for the Championship round or European final but from 1976 to 1990 it was upgraded in stature and acted as a final qualifier for the World Championship final itself.[3] It was not held from 1991 to 1994 and then from 1995 to 2001 it acted as a final qualifier for the Speedway Grand Prix or Grand Prix Challenge.[4]
