History
editNagroda Wielka Warszawska was held for the first time in 1895, modeled on the French Grand Prix de Paris race.[1]
Until 1904, it had a distance of about 3,200 m. For political reasons, in the years 1905-1912, 1915–1916 and 1919, there were breaks in its play. In 1913 and in 1917 and 1918 (in Odessa) it was held over a distance of 2,667 m. From 1920, its distance was 2,800 m, and from 1933 - 2,400 m, the same as after World War II in 1946-48 . The current distance (2600 m) has remained unchanged since 1949.[2]
