Congratulations to the team and for the individual champion Tomasz Gollob .
Tomasz Gollob is Poland's first world champion in 37 years and only their second in speedway history (Jerzy Szczakiel was the first in 1973). Tomasz finally clinched the title after racing in 129 Grand Prix events - in fact he won the first SGP round at Wroclaw in 1995. Has now won 20 GPs, two less than Jason Crump. Broke an ankle days before the final round in Bydgoszcz last year and completed only one race, which he won, on his home town track to underline his superstar status in his own country and also shed himself of the tag 'the best rider never to have won the world championship'. Can he add a second title in 2011?
