WTF!
A track that’s been running since 1977. Decades of racing. Generations of drivers. Gone — not because it failed, but because it was “too loud”… suddenly.
Too loud for who?
People who built houses after the racetrack was built saw cheaper property near a racetrack and an airport — Poznań–Ławica Airport — and thought they’d somehow outvote reality.
Since 2023
Since 2023, complaint after complaint, appeal after appeal — until officials had no choice under noise laws. And they timed it perfectly: right before the season. Events lined up. Cars prepped. Teams ready.
Then boom. Dead.
Not “restricted.” Not “reduced.”
Dead.
And here’s the part nobody wants to say out loud:
Polish motorsport just got sent back years.
No proper circuit =
No serious national racing scene
No development ladder for drivers
No place to train, test, or grow
Crazy Locals
You don’t just “replace” a track like that. You lose it, and the whole ecosystem collapses with it.
All because a group of people wanted quiet… in a place that was never quiet to begin with.
They moved next to the noise
then erased it.
And now an entire country’s motorsport scene is left idling… with nowhere to go.

The hashtag #ratumytorpoznan has gone viral on Instagram as fans react to restrictions affecting Tor Poznań, Poland’s main FIA-grade circuit. It’s being used as a grassroots call to “save” the track, with users sharing race footage, memories, and criticism of noise complaints and regulatory decisions. The trend reflects growing concern in the motorsport community about losing a key venue for racing and driver development.
