Pavel Ondrašík (born 10 December 1975 in Prague, Czechoslovakia) is a Czech former motorcycle speedway rider.

Career

Ondrasik failed to gain a work permit despite agreeing terms with Reading Racers in 1996. He finally rode in the United Kingdom five years later, for the Trelawny Tigers in the 2001 Premier League, although he had been targeted previously by King's Lynn Stars.

He stayed with the Tigers until their closure in 2003. He then spent seasons with Newport Wasps and the Exeter Falcons. His season with the Somerset Rebels was cut short in 2006 after he suffered a broken wrist.

In 2000, he won the silver medal at the Czech Republic Individual Speedway Championship.

Family

Pavel is the son of former Czechoslovak international speedway rider Petr Ondrašík.
