Due to the ongoing impacts of Covid-19 in Poland, the 2021 Warsaw FIM Speedway Grand Prix of Poland, scheduled to take place on August 7, 2021 at the PGE Narodowy stadium has been cancelled.
Michał Sikora, President of the Polish Automobile and Motorcycle Association, said: "We are very sorry to have to cancel the event and assessed all possibilities before coming to this tough decision.
"Unfortunately, the ongoing pandemic with the restrictions on fans being able to watch safely has made this impossible.
"I would like to reassure fans that all tickets for the Warsaw SGP will remain valid or refunds will be issued and we ask for patience and understanding going forward."
Paul Bellamy, Senior Vice President of Motorsports Events at IMG, added: "We're sad to not be returning to Warsaw in 2021 and know the event will be missed by riders and fans this year.
"We fully support the PZM in their decision. The ongoing uncertainty around social distancing, venue capacity and other pandemic-related restrictions posed multiple challenges to staging an event of this scale and installing a temporary track in a multi-purpose stadium."
The FIM Speedway Grand Prix series is set to return on July 16 and 17 as the 2021 season kicks off in Prague with a double-header at the Anlas Czech Republic FIM Speedway Grand Prix, taking place at Marketa Stadium.
