THE DECIDER: BRADY KURTZ ON THE BRINK OF WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP IMMORTALITY

Current World Championship standings after Round 9 at Vojens:

• 1st: Robert Lambert (Great Britain) – 142 pts

• 2nd: Bartosz Zmarzlik (Poland) – 141 pts

• 3rd: Brady Kurtz (Australia) – 139 pts

The 2026 FIM Speedway Grand Prix season has reached its absolute boiling point and the final destination is the cathedral of speedway in Torun, Poland.

After a grueling, globe-trotting campaign on the world's most unforgiving dirt tracks, the ultimate question is now plastered across official SGP channels: Who will be crowned World Champion?

The title fight has narrowed down to an elite, heavy-hitting trio of global speedway titans, setting up one of the most explosive winner-take-all finales in modern motorsport history:

• Bartosz Zmarzlik (Poland): The multi-time defending World Champion carrying the massive weight and backing of his home nation on Polish dirt.

  
  

• Robert Lambert (Great Britain): The relentless British powerhouse operating at the very peak of his powers, looking to bring individual world glory back to the UK.

  
  

• Brady Kurtz (Australia): The Aussie dark horse turned unstoppable force, riding on uncompromised, ragged-edge aggression and proving he belongs at the top of the world.

  
  

  
  

CARRYING FIRE INTO THE FINALE

Our boy is carrying serious momentum into this decider. You only have to look back to Round 9 in Vojens, Denmark, where Kurtz fired a massive warning shot across the paddock by taking a dominant P1 in the high-pressure Sprint Race. Standing on top of the podium with the microphone in hand, his confidence wasn't just visible—it was undeniable.

When the visor goes down, the #101 machine has been a weapon. Trackside frames capture Kurtz pitching the bike completely sideways on the clay, burying the rear tire and throwing massive roost as he wrestles the 500cc brakeless monster on the ragged edge.

THE STARE OF A CHAMPION

It’s the quiet moments off the bike that prove he’s built for this moment. Looking out across the stadium seating from the pits, that icy, laser-focused stare under his Boll cap tells you everything you need to know about his mindset. The immense pressure of a World Championship decider on Polish soil isn't rattling him; he's absorbing it.

With Australia already securing the 2026 Speedway World Cup team gold earlier this year, Kurtz now stands on the precipice of securing the ultimate individual crown.
