Gorzow v Wroclaw 28/9/20 - Just watching this on nsport+ Poland. I've no idea what's going on as it's Polish although they've just interviewed Woffinden & Holder in English so it looks like unfit track atm.

One thing to note is a crowd of sorts, with a noisy fans area, tightly packed, no masks and singing away creating an atmosphere. Is there no Covid-19 in Poland? Can't even speak loudly in the UK

Well that answered that:

For anyone going - travellers arriving in the UK from Poland will have to self-isolate for 14 days from 04:00 on Saturday. Poland's infection rate has risen. There will also be tougher fines for those who fail to self-isolate - up to a maximum of £10,000 in England. Announcing the changes to the quarantine list, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said data from Poland showed that "test positivity has nearly doubled increasing from 3.9% to 5.8% alongside a rapid increase in weekly cases". Poland is reporting 25.9 coronavirus cases per 100,000 people, up from 15.6.

Sat 3 - Proper speedway with fans. So Poland is off the UK's safe travel list but their PM is in Torun at the GP and is clearly not as useless and out of control as Johnson & Hancock as he's happy with a sizeable crowd watching: - click photos to enlarge.
