There was a dramatic crash in heat 6 of the Speedway Grand Prix in Warsaw, Poland when Patryk Dudek collided with Jack Holder as the two men took a corner.

Dudek appeared to lose control of his bike as his front wheel came up off the track and although Holder had the presence of mind to take some evasive action, a coming together was unavoidable.

Both men required treatment but were able to walk away from the incident.

The track itself appeared to be cutting up, with Polish rider Dudek hitting a rut in the dirt causing his bike to waver before the crash.

The incident led to a lengthy delay as officials sought to repair the damage in the track before the heat was re-run.

As the riders lined up again, Dudek was absent but Holder was able to return to starting line.

Max Fricke took maximum points at the second time of asking with Holder in second and Pawel Przedpelski in third.

Holder showed no ill-effects from the crash, claiming victory in his next heat of the evening.

Dudek also returned for his later heats in the evening, also taking a win in heat 17.

The latest Speedway Grand Prix race in Warsaw began with a show of solidarity between neighbours Ukraine and Poland following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

With more than 50,000 fans packed into the national stadium in Warsaw, a huge Tifo display was unveiled with the flags of Ukraine and Poland stitched together.

The gesture took place during the Polish national anthem ahead of the race and was greeted with warm applause by supporters in the ground.

The 2022 roster of qualified riders features three Poles including championship favourite Bartosz Zmarzlik, as well as Patryk Dudek and Pawel Przedpelski.

Defending champion from 2021 Artem Laguta and Emil Sayfutdinov, who finished third, have been unable to compete in this year’s championship after the FIM banned Russian athletes from competing following the invasion.

Ukrainian rider Vitalii Lysak was named as a reserve for the race as part of a further gesture from the hosts.
