Career
Dudek's father, Sławomir, was a professional rider[1] and Patryk gained his speedway licence in 2008.[2] Dudek won 2009 and 2010 Team U-19 European Champion and 2009 Individual Under-21 Polish Champion titles.
In 2017, he won the silver medal during the 2017 Speedway Grand Prix, having accomplished this during his debut season in the Speedway Grand Prix series, which makes him the most successful SGP rookie ever.
After finishing 12th during the 2020 Speedway Grand Prix season Dudek suffered a leg injury, which resulted in him missing the 2021 season.[3] In 2022, he finished in 7th place during the 2022 Speedway World Championship, after securing 102 points during the 2022 Speedway Grand Prix season, which included winning the German Grand Prix.[4]
