OlyBet, part of the Olympic Entertainment Group, has been confirmed as the title sponsor of the 2023 FIM Speedway Latvian Grand Prix.
After a six-year absence, OlyBet 2023 FIM Speedway GP of Latvia will return to the 100th anniversary of the sport.
Laura Mansiet, Director of FIM Speedway Championships, said: “I am very pleased to join forces with OlyBet for our event in Riga and we thank them for being part of this highly anticipated weekend.
