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]
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]
