UKRAINIAN RACER PARNITSKYI PENS NEW DACKARNA DEAL

Ukraine’s SGP2 world champion Nazar Parnitskyi has extended his stay with Swedish side Dackarna into 2026.

Parnitskyi made his Bauhaus Elitserien debut with the Malilla club this year, averaging 1.649 points per race.

He teams up with the likes of 2021 Speedway GP world champion Artem Laguta and Swedish duo Timo Lahti and Tomas H Jonasson next year.

Parnitskyi powered to a five-ride maximum to win a rain-shortened Deluxe Homeart FIM SGP2 of Denmark – Vojens in September, sealing the FIM Speedway Under-21 World Championship.

He’s set for a huge year in 2026 after also being named as first substitute rider for the Speedway GP series, meaning he will be called into action if any of the SGP regulars are sidelined due to injury, illness or other reasons.

Of his Malilla return, Parnitskyi said: “I am very happy to stay in Dackarna for another season and look forward to meeting the fans in Malilla again.”

Elsewhere in Sweden, Piraterna has penned deals with Swedish trio Jonathan Ejnermark, Erik Persson and Harry Lundahl.
