The new speedway season starts in Sweden this weekend. A hugely popular sport in the country, it's the rawest form of motorcycle sport. A typical meet is made up of several races around an oval dirt track and famously the bikes have no brakes. Those who compete like Antonio Lindback are cool, calm and tough in equal measure. They have to deal constantly with being in the spotlight. In March 2015 he was charged with drink driving, having already been convicted twice before for the offence. Antonio has been speaking to the Â鶹Éç's Joel Hammer about dealing with his alcoholism. Photo: Speedway rider Antonio Lindback outside his workshop CREDIT: Joel Hammer/Â鶹Éç)
