| This was not an official Test Match as the organisers were not prepared to pay an extra fee to the FIM for official approval. The FIM retaliated by not allowing the teams to be billed as Austria and Germany, so it was re-billed as Vienna v Munich - though the two teams were of course full international teams. | Leopold Killmeyer | 16 | Josef Hofmeister | ? | |||

| 1952 | Fri 18.07 : Graz | Austria | 82 | Germany | 73 | |
| This appears to have been a scheduled 24-heat match which was abandoned after 16 heats. Each race | ||||||
| comprised 6 riders, scoring 4-3-2-1-0-0. | ||||||
| Many thanks to Charles McKay who supplied all the details of this match (including the heat | ||||||
| details below) from one of the most confusing, badly-written, poorly filled-in programmes I have | ||||||
| ever seen! | ||||||
