A new era of the Individual Speedway Polish Championship!
 

The 2022 season will be unique when it comes to playing the struggle for the Individual Speedway Polish Championship. This year, a number of new products will be introduced to make the competition for the title of the best Polish player more attractive.

One of the most important changes will be the Individual Polish Championships in the form of several final tournaments. Thus, the best domestic speedway rider will not be known after one final, but three. This will be the first time that IMP medalists will not be selected within one day since 1988, when the two-day final was held in Leszno, and all points were included in the classification. Previously, such a situation took place only in Toruń in the 1987 season. In the years 1953-1956 the Polish champion was selected in several rounds (three, four or five), but then the three best results were included in the final classification.

We will know the Individual Polish Champion in the 2022 season after the three finals. For the first time in history, this struggle has gained a title sponsor and the contract is to be in force for five years. Thus, the valid name will be CANAL + ONLINE Individual Polish Championship, and therefore broadcasts from the IMP finals will be broadcast on Canal + at least until 2026.

Not only has the formula of the final changed, but also the elimination formula. From 2022, they will consist of four quarter-finals and one semi-finals (instead of two - compared to previous seasons). From each of the first eliminations, the best four will be promoted to compete in the semi-finals. From this tournament, eight top players will advance to the IMP series of finals, with those ninth and tenth placed as substitutes. In addition, a guaranteed place among the finalists is given to the medalists from last year, regular participants of the Speedway Grand Prix series and the Individual Junior Polish Champion from the previous season. The last places will be filled by competitors with "wild cards", in the number and according to the rules established by the Main Speedway Sports Commission. It will be necessary, for example, in the event of a doubling of players, because, for example, Bartosz Zmarzlik and Maciej Janowski are both medalists from 2021 and regular participants of the SGP series for the 2022 season.

- I am very happy that people who have been showing great speedway for many years now enter the title sponsorship. Eventually, we will have a champion justly selected. Many times it happened that the judge did not notice who to exclude, etc. and that someone was missing out on the title. Now it will be orderly and fair - said Tomasz Gollob.

The three final tournaments will be played on similar rules to those that have been in force in the Individual Polish Championship since 2013. The main series of 20 runs will be followed by a semi-final race and a grand final. The top two from the main part of the tournament will be directly promoted to the latter, and the next two places will be taken by the two best players from the semi-finals. The final order of the single finals will be determined by the last two heats of the day. The first four will be known after the final, the fifth place will be given to the third player of the semi-finals, and the sixth to the fourth. The results of the main series and the final race will be included in the points classification (there will be no points for the semi-finals). The novelty will be the awarding of an additional "eye" to the competitor who will obtain the highest number of wins in each of the final tournaments (including races 1-20 and the final). If two players have the same number of wins, the point will be awarded to the one with the higher final position in the tournament. Thus, a maximum of 19 points will be awarded for each competition - six for race wins and one extra point.

The new formula was developed through consultations, which were conducted in a wider group of people closely related to the speedway sport. It included the chairman of the Main Speedway Sport Commission Piotr Szymański, Member of the Main Speedway Sport Commission, Zbigniew Fiałkowski, president of the Methanol Speedway Association Krzysztof Cegielski, the best competitor in the history of the Individual Polish Championships Tomasz Gollob, the current national champion Bartosz Zmarzlik and two-time champion from 2015 and 2020 - Maciej Janowski.

- Another thing that opens us up to speedway. I think it's good that you don't have to focus on one minute that will be everything. I think it will catch on quite nicely - added Bartosz Zmarzlik.

The new formula and the increase in the number of finals are also associated with a significant increase in remuneration for participation in tournaments for the Individual Polish Championship. The pool of prizes for each final round will amount to over PLN 500,000. The winner of a single final may collect up to PLN 20,000 in this case, and each item will be assigned an appropriate stake (for 16th place - PLN 7,500).

The introduction of new rules for the organization of CANAL + ONLINE Individual Polish Championships is also connected with a number of novelties that will make it easier to obtain information about them. A dedicated website will be created devoted entirely to this competition, and in addition, appropriate profiles will be created on social media - on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. These competitions will also receive a completely new logo, which will be associated only with the CANAL + ONLINE Individual Polish Championship.

In the upcoming seasons of players and fans, there will be another hand that can be safely called a new era of the Individual Polish Championship. The changes introduced are to make this competition more attractive, and the assumptions are that these rules will apply for the next few years, until 2026 inclusive.

Maybe the right time to post again the rules for the 3 finals.

20 heats - top 2 to final next 4 to non scoring semi with top 2 into the final

new for 2022 is the addition of an extra point for the rider who scores most race wins on the night(heats and final). If it`s a tie for the extra point it`s awarded to the rider in the highest finishing position- therefore a maximum of 19 points available each meeting.
