Due to injury suffered in the PGE Ekstraliga match, Janusz Kołodziej couldn't take part in the inaugural round held in Częstochowa, so the upcoming round in Güstrow will be his first in this year's TAURON Speedway Euro Championship series. Will the German track suit him as it did last year?

In the last year series Kolodziej competed for the title of the best rider of the Old Continent with Leon Madsen. In the end, it was the Dane who said the "last word" in this clash, overtaking the Pole in the general classification by just one point. 'Koldi' had to settle for silver.

For Kołodziej, the most successful round of TAURON SEC 2022 was the one held in Güstrow. In this one, he won five out of six races and the only "slip-up" noted in the second series, when he crossed the finish line last.

Thanks to his phenomenal performance, after two rounds of last year's competition he became the leader of the interim classification of the series, having then a four-point lead over the second Madsen.

Will the Tarnów-born rider be able to repeat the result from a year ago? After Kołodziej's recent results reached in the league competition, it is safe to say that in Güstrow he will be one of the main favorites to win.

The main partner of the Speedway Euro Championship series is Lotto.
