Once again, Paweł Przedpełski will replace Maksym Drabik during the FIM U21 World Championship round in Pardubice (Czech Republic). World's best juniors will race in Czech Republic on September 16, one day before the Great Final of SEC.
Let's remind that at the beginning of the season, Maksym Drabik got a really bad injury during the Swedish league match.
Broken hip caused a long break in starts for the young rider of Betard Sparta Wrocław.
Despite ending the rehabilitation process and coming back to practices, Drabik decided to withdraw from the second round of Individual World Junior Championship.
- Unfortunately, my leg is still in condtion that doesn't let me ride on 100% in Czech Rep. I always give 100% and with huge regret, but I had to make this decision - said Maksym Drabik.
For the second time, however, another Pole will start - Paweł Przedpełski, for whom the round in King's Lynn did not end well. After a good start, Przedpełski had a serious crash that made him withdraw from further rivalry. Despite a big loss to Krystian Pieszczek, Paweł counts on a good performance in Pardubice.
- I am really happy to start in the next round of this championship, however I would like Maksym to do it too. Unfortunately, that's what speedway is. Injury of one rider is a chance for another one. My performance in King's Lynn was really unlucky, I lost many points to Krystian Pieszczek, but I am going to Pardubice with a strong will to fight - added cycle's reserve Paweł Przedpełski.
Meeting starts on September 16 at 7 PM local time in Pardubice.
