We, the undersigned, demand that the government of the Czech Republic address the situation around the financing of the Czech Republic Grand Prix - Road Racing World Championship.

Our petition has been prompted by the following facts:

- The Czech Republic Grand Prix is one of the biggest events in the Czech Republic – if not the very biggest;

- The Czech Republic Grand Prix is by far the biggest celebration for all fans of motorcycle sports;

- The Czech Republic Grand Prix brings undoubted benefits to the Czech economy and increases the prosperity of Brno and the South Moravian Region;

- The Czech Republic Grand Prix confers honour on our country right across the globe: people learn about our country in a positive light and the event functions as a promotional tool;

- The Czech Republic Grand Prix is the backdrop to all motorcycling sport in the Czech Republic – thanks to this race the country boasts three permanent riders in the world championships, which with respect to the size of the Czech Republic is without precedent anywhere in the world;

- The Czech Republic Grand Prix is one of the last reminders of the fame enjoyed by Czech motorcycle sport and tradition, which since the 1950s has been established by figures such as František Šťastný and Gustav Havel

- And while achieving all the above, the Grand Prix generates none of the antisocial phenomena such as hooliganism, vandalism or racism often connected with other sports.
 

Which is why:
- We reject the decision of the National Council for Sport not to award a grant to hold the Czech Republic Grand Prix in 2014, which puts at immediate risk any continuation of the Grand Prix race tradition in forthcoming years;

- We demand that the government of the Czech Republic actively looks into opportunities to support and save the Czech Republic Grand Prix and to set up transparent rules that would enable the race to continue its existence;

- And, if the government fails to act in this way, we ask that Members of Parliament and Senators, as our elected representatives, use their right of interpellation to formally question the Czech Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance regarding this demand to support the Czech Republic Grand Prix.

To whom will the petition be forwarded: Úřad vlády ČR, Poslanecká sněmovna ČR
