Biography
Slovakia’s first and only FIM Speedway Grand Prix star, Martin Vaculik became the nation's first FIM Speedway World Championship medallist when he bagged bronze in 2023.
His success on the world stage saw him awarded Slovakia’s prestigious Crystal Wing in March 2024 – a prize that honours heroes from every walk of life in his homeland.
Vaculik made an unforgettable World Championship debut, when he won the 2012 FIM Gorzow Speedway GP after replacing the injured Jaroslaw Hampel in the meeting.
He ended 2024 a nine-time Speedway GP winner after racing to his third straight FIM Speedway GP of Czech Republic – Prague victory in his adopted home event, as well as topping the podium in Wroclaw on his way to fifth place in the 2024 Speedway GP World Championship.
