Overseas final

The Overseas final was a Motorcycle speedway final sanctioned by the FIM as a qualifying round for the Speedway World Championship between 1981 and 2001.[1]

Introduced to the World Championship in 1981, it served as a qualifying round for Commonwealth and American riders. The Overseas final was originally intended to replace the Commonwealth final, but stayed on the World Championship calendar when the Commonwealth was re-introduced in 1986.[2][3]
