Inter Europol Competition is a Polish racing team that has evolved from humble beginnings in national and regional formula racing to become an established fixture in international sportscar racing. The team was founded by Jakub Smiechowski, who initially built the structure in the formula racing sector before transitioning into endurance and GT racing. The team’s name directly references its parent company Inter Europol, a Polish logistics and transport company that serves as the main sponsor and namesake, thereby establishing a close connection between the company’s operational business and its racing engagement.
A distinctive feature of the team is its Polish origin in a motorsport environment traditionally dominated by Western European nations. Inter Europol Competition is regarded as one of the few Polish teams that have managed to establish themselves permanently at an international top level, whether in endurance racing or in the formula training ladder. This heritage gives the team its own identity and makes it a flagship for Polish motorsport, which is rarely visible in this form beyond the country’s borders.
The team’s sporting development progressed through various junior series toward an engagement in GT and prototype racing, where Inter Europol Competition has been increasingly gathering experience and reputation. Through competing in different classes, from GT3 vehicles to LMP prototypes, the team positioned itself as a versatile partner for drivers and technical suppliers, gradually building the foundation for the leap into the FIA World Endurance Championship.
In the WEC itself, Inter Europol Competition has established itself as an ambitious competitor in the prototype classes, continuously gaining experience and competitiveness. The current era of the team is characterized by a clear forward-looking vision: under the leadership of team management around founder Jakub Smiechowski, the team is being consistently developed to compete in the international field. Looking ahead to the 2026 season, the team is working to further expand its position in endurance racing and keep the Polish flag visible on the major stages of motorsport endurance competition.
Inter Europol Competition thus exemplifies the path of a nationally rooted team that has achieved the leap into international top racing through consistent development and the backing of a strong parent company. The combination of Polish identity, industrial support, and sporting ambition makes the team a remarkable story within the FIA WEC, whose next chapter is eagerly anticipated.
