The 1988 Speedway World Team Cup was the 29th edition of the FIMSpeedway World Team Cup to determine the team world champions.[1][2]
The three legged final format was scrapped and a one off final returned, which was held at the Veterans Memorial Stadium (Long Beach) in California, United States. It made no difference to Denmark who duly wrapped up a sixth consecutive title (and eighth in total) moving level with England's record. It was also Hans Nielsen's eighth gold medal having taken part in all of Denmark's title wins.[3][4]
