FIM Oceania, Motorcycling Australia and Gillman Speedway are disappointed to announce the postponement of the 2021 FIM Oceania Speedway Championship, Australian Speedway Under-21 Championship, and Australian Under-16 250cc Championship due to uncertainly around COVID-19 border restrictions.
The Championships were to be held on January 29 and 30 at South Australia’s Gillman Speedway, however because current border restrictions and their impact on event personnel, the tough decision has been made to postpone the two-day extravaganza.
