1987 Individual Speedway World Championship

The 1987 Individual Speedway World Championship was the 42nd edition of the official World Championship to determine the world champion rider.[1][2][3][4]

The 1987 Speedway World Final programme.

It was contested for the one and only time over two days in the Netherlands. The scores from both meetings were combined to produce the eventual winner.[5]

With the chances of a surprise winner reduced due to two races being held it was the favourite Hans Nielsen that duly obliged with his second World crown. Nielsen had trailed after day one by 1 point to great rival Erik Gundersen and the American Sam Ermolenko. However in trademark style Nielsen produced a 15 point maximum on day two to wrap up the World Title, with Gundersen claiming silver and Ermolenko bronze.[6][7]
