Career details

Laguta became the Russian champion in 2010 and 2011.[3]

In August 2010, during the Speedway Grand Prix Qualification he won the GP Challenge,[4] which ensured that he claimed a permanent slot for the 2011 Grand Prix.[5]

He is also a three times world team champion with Russia after partnering Emil Sayfutdinov during three consecutive years, as Russia won the Speedway of Nations in 2018, 2019 and 2020.[6][7][8] In April 2020, he obtained a dual national speedway licence after obtaining a Polish licence, although he continued to represent Russia.[9]

Laguta became the 2021 Individual World Champion after winning the 2021 Speedway Grand Prix with 192 points. He won five rounds out of eleven and overtook defending champion Bartosz Zmarzlik in the points standings in round 10, which proved to be the pivotal moment of the Championship.[2]
