The competition moves to Grudziądz for the second round of the TAURON SEC 2024, where a round of the Individual European Championships will be held for the first time.
The current leader of the standings is Andzejs Lebedevs. The Latvian rider triumphed in the TAURON SEC round for the first time after an exciting final race. In Debrecen, he lost only one point, giving him a five-point lead over second-placed Maciej Janowski. In Grudziądz, Lebedevs will do everything to maintain or preferably increase this gap. If he performs as well as he did in Debrecen, he will become the main favorite for the overall victory.
Lebedevs’ plans will be challenged by riders like Patryk Dudek and Maciej Janowski. Both have shown excellent form in recent weeks and could play key roles in Grudziądz.
Anders Thomsen, Mikkel Michelsen, and Leon Madsen will also aim for top positions. The three Danes did not start this year’s series well in Debrecen, so they need to deliver strong performances at Venture Industries Arena to stay in the TAURON SEC leading pack.
The 'dark horse' of the Grudziądz event could be Max Fricke. The Australian will be the first non-European rider to compete in a TAURON SEC round. Racing on his home track, makes him a genuine contender for victory. He has proven many times that he knows how to race on the Grudziądz track.
TItular Sponsor of Speedway Euro Championship is TAURON Polska Energia.
