Thirty years on from the very first SGP series in 1995, the 2025 Speedway GP world champion will be crowned over 10 epic rounds, with action taking place across seven different countries.

Poland hosts three events in capital Warsaw, Gorzow and Wroclaw, with rounds in British cities Cardiff and Manchester and action in Denmark’s speedway mecca Vojens, Czech capital Prague, Latvian capital Riga, German city Landshut and at Swedish venue Malilla.

For the first time since its opening in 2016, Britain’s National Speedway Stadium hosts SGP action as the FIM Speedway GP of Great Britain – Manchester takes place on June 14 – following up its successful FIM Speedway of Nations this summer, which saw GB duo Robert Lambert and Dan Bewley win their second world title in three years.

The SGP action then returns to Wales for the FIM Speedway GP of Great Britain – Cardiff on August 16, where Bewley and Lambert raced to the nation’s first-ever SGP one-two at the famous Principality Stadium this year.
For the first time since 1999, the Speedway GP series will climax at Vojens Speedway Center, in Denmark, on September 13 in the year the venue opened by three-time FIM Speedway world champion Ole Olsen on September 21, 1975, toasts its 50th anniversary.

Three champions will be crowned in one weekend at Denmark’s national speedway stadi-um, with the FIM Speedway Under-21 World Championship (SGP2) series finale and the FIM Speedway Youth World Cup (SGP4) also taking place there.

This event will be followed by a huge week of racing in picturesque Polish city Toruń, which stages the 2025 FIM Speedway of Nations – the sport’s ultimate test of team riding – from Tuesday, September 30 until Saturday, October 4 as 15 countries compete over four nights of action to become world team champions for 2025.



Speedway GP world champion Bartosz Zmarzlik bids to win a record-equalling sixth FIM Speedway World Championship, joining New Zealand legend Ivan Mauger and Swedish great Tony Rickardsson in speedway’s most elite club. He is also chasing an unprecedented fourth gold medal in a row after topping the podium for a third straight season in 2023.

Jean-Baptiste Ley, Motorsport Events Director for FIM Speedway global promoter Warner Bros. Discovery Sports, looks forward to an unforgettable season of racing.

He said: “In Speedway GP’s 30th anniversary year, we are celebrating with 10 fantastic events and it’s an absolute pleasure to welcome Manchester’s National Speedway Stadium on to the calendar, joining Cardiff’s Principality Stadium for what’s set to be a special season for British fans.

“There’s plenty to look forward to for our fans across Europe, with four events in Poland, big nights in Prague, Riga, Landshut and Malilla, and of course, a huge Speedway GP season finale in Vojens – a fitting way to mark 50 years of racing at this famous club.

“We thank all of our riders, local organisers, sponsors, suppliers, fans around the world and our partners at the FIM for working with us to deliver a great season of FIM Speedway in 2024. We can’t wait for our first event in Landshut on May 3 when the battle to be crowned 2025 Speedway GP world champion begins.”

Armando Castagna, FIM Track Racing Commission (CCP) director, said: “Speedway fans have plenty to look forward to in 2025 and it’s great to see Manchester join the Speedway GP calendar for the first time following what was a very entertaining FIM Speedway of Nations at the National Speedway Stadium this year.

“Next season marks 30 years since Speedway GP was launched, and it’s fitting that both Wroclaw and Vojens host racing in 2025, having been part of that first SGP season in 1995. I congratulate the Vojens club on what will be their 50th anniversary and I look forward to see-ing which riders will be crowned champion on that big speedway weekend in September.

“I would like to thank everyone involved in FIM Speedway for a great season in 2024, and we look forward to returning to action in 2025.”

FIM Speedway race director Phil Morris commented: “As a Brit, I am very proud to see the National Speedway Stadium in Manchester join the Speedway GP calendar, alongside my lo-cal event – the FIM Speedway GP of Great Britain – Cardiff. I hope having two truly excellent British events on the calendar will inspire fans old and new to enjoy the action in 2025.

“Bartosz Zmarzlik will be chasing down Ivan Mauger and Tony Rickardsson’s FIM Speedway World Championship record, but there will be plenty of riders determined to deny him this moment of history.

“I want to pass on my thanks to all of the riders for their efforts during the 2024 season and I look forward to working with everyone who makes our FIM Speedway events possible again next year.”

The 2025 Speedway GP series gets underway with the FIM Speedway GP of Germany – Landshut on May 3 – a year after the Bavarian club staged its first SGP event since 1997 at a packed OneSolar Arena.

The SGP series then concludes with a weekend of champions at Vojens Speedway Center. Three champions will be crowned on one weekend, starting at the FIM SGP2 of Denmark – Vojens on Friday, September 12 with the sport’s FIM Speedway Under-21 world champion.

The FIM Speedway Youth World Cup (SGP4) will be contested during the afternoon of Saturday, September 13 as FIM Speedway’s youngest stars compete on the 190cc SGP4 bikes, designed by Swedish legend Tony Rickardsson to train a new generation of champions.
