Kevin Wölbert (born 14 June 1989)[1] is a German motorcycle speedway rider who has won the Individual German Championship title three times.[2][3][4]

Career history[edit]

When Max Dilger was injured, Wölbert was nominated as second track reserve at the 2008 German Grand Prix.[5] But, after re-staged this event in Bydgoszcz, Poland (as the Final Grand Prix), Wölbert was replaced by Pole Grzegorz Zengota.[6]

Due to having Polish roots through his grandmother, Wölbert expressed interest in Polish citizenship. He applied for citizenship in November 2009 in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship Office in Bydgoszcz. His application was supported by Robert Malinowski, the President of Grudziądz and GTŻ Grudziądz, his Polish team.[7]

He started racing in the British leagues during the 2009 Premier League speedway season, when riding for the Edinburgh Monarchs. He made an immediate impression, averaging 8.87 and then 8.53 and 8.82 over the next two seasons with the Scottish club.[8] In 2012, he joined King's Lynn Stars and spent the 2013 season with the Belle Vue Aces.[4]

In 2014, he joined Glasgow Tigers before re-joining his first British club Edinburgh in 2015. He was part of the Edinburgh team that won the 2015 league title and Premier League Four-Team Championship, although he only rode in the semi finals and not the final.[9]

His final season in Britain was in 2016, although he did continue to ride in Poland and Denmark. In 2023, he was part of the German team that competed at the 2023 Speedway World Cup in Poland[10] and he also won his third Germany national title.[11]
