Polish speedway Ekstraliga playoff race
Entities: Janusz Kołodziej · Robert Lambert · Stelmet Falubaz Zielona Góra · Rafał Okoniewski · Patryk Dudek
Overview
In early July 2026 Toruń earned a decisive derby win over GKM Grudziądz, keeping its playoff hopes alive. The contest for the top four tightened in the following weeks. By early August Unia Leszno sat on 17 points, needing only a bonus point to stay near the playoff threshold, while GKM Grudziądz had slipped to fifth after three straight defeats and required at least a bonus point against Unia to remain in contention. The race for the remaining Ekstraliga playoff spots remained closely contested. On 2 August, Toruń (PRES Grupa Deweloperska) defeated Falubaz Zielona Góra 41‑49 in the 12th round, clinching a place in the league playoffs. Riders Patryk Dudek, Robert Lambert and Emil Sajfutdinow each contributed 13 points, while Falubaz’s Dominik Kubera also scored 13. The win solidified Toruń’s push for the postseason and left Falubaz’s season outlook uncertain.
