Speedway injuries impact Łódź Grand Prix

Entities: Wiktor Przyjemski · Polonia Bydgoszcz · SGP2 · Leszek Tillinger · Janek Konza

Overview

In late July 2026 two separate injuries disrupted the Speedway Grand Prix events in Łódź, Poland. On July 25, Swedish rider Fredrik Lindgren withdrew from the senior Polish Grand Prix after a leg injury from a May crash, prompting his team to name Anders Thomsen as his replacement. Days later, on July 28, Polish junior star Wiktor Przyjemski suffered broken collarbone and ribs in a crash at the Youth Individual Polish Championships, ruling him out of the SGP2 round in Łódź and ending his realistic chances of the junior world title. Janek Konza of Germany was appointed to fill the vacant junior slot. Both incidents highlight a series of rider injuries affecting the upcoming Łódź Grand Prix meetings across senior and junior categories.
