The 1960 Individual Speedway World Championship was the 15th edition of the official World Championship to determine the world champion rider.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
The final was held on 17 September, in front of a 70,000 crowd at Wembley Stadium. In an extremely competitive final three riders tied for first place on 14 points before Ove Fundin won the ride off to claim his second world title. In the ride off Fundin defeated defending champion Ronnie Moore and former champion Peter Craven. Craven had earlier set a track record of 68.8 seconds in his first race.[7]
