Plymouth Gladiators are delighted to announce 27 year old Norwegian rider Lasse Fredriksen as their third signing for the 2025 Championship Speedway season.
Lasse comes to Devon with a solid background and knowledge of the other Championship Tracks after three seasons with the Edinburgh Monarchs; where he became a popular Member of the Scottish Team.
Lasse will join the already announced Joe Thompson and Alfie Bowtell in the engine room of the Team, and the Club expects to be announcing more exciting captures soon; with talks progressing on a number of fronts around the globe.
Promoter Mark Phillips said “We once again aim to consistently track the strongest Reserve pairing in the League and to build a Team around strength and depth. Lasse fits that part of the Team jigsaw perfectly, with 3 seasons in UK Speedway under his belt. We’ve heard only good things about his attitude and application; and we are delighted with his signing.
“I am sure that Plymouth fans will welcome him with open arms. We were very impressed with Lasse on his last visit to Plymouth when he scored 9 points and 1 bonus point from 5 rides for Edinburgh from the difficult No 3 spot in the top 5 of their team that night; and that included beating our own Track specialists, Ben Barker (twice) and Dan Thompson.
We anticipate more exciting Team News soon; and whilst we await the 2025 Fixture List for both our Championship and new NDL Trophy Teams before we can announce Season and Match Ticket pricing, if anyone wants to speak to me about Sponsorship or Advertising, please feel free to do so by mailing me at mark@plymouth-speedway.com.”
