Speedway racing injuries in Poland

Overview

In mid-August 2026, speedway rider Patryk Dudek was injured during the Individual Polish Championships in Ostrowo. The crash occurred during a heat involving Bartosz Zmarzlik, causing Dudek to hit an inflatable barrier. While Dudek reported neck pain and was hospitalized, his club later confirmed he suffered only bruises and no fractures, though he was expected to miss upcoming matches.

Later in the month, a collision during a match between Łódź and Bydgoszcz resulted in further injuries. Krzysztof Buczkowski was hospitalized for evaluation following a crash with Villads Nagel. Although Nagel continued to compete during the event, medical examinations later confirmed he had suffered a broken arm.
