Round 2 in Riesa, Germany, belonged to Billy Bolt (GBR, Husqvarna Factory Racing) who proved that a reverse grid race order of Final 2 won’t stop him from clocking the fastest lap. Worth noting is that both Josep Garcia (ESP, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) and Mitch Brightmore (GBR, X-Grip Racing) also set their best lap times in reverse grid Final 2, showing just how intense the reverse grid final was.

Round 3 in Bilbao, Spain, gave us a proper Acerbis Best Lap shootout. Jonny Walker and Billy Bolt were separated by just 0.166 seconds. Jonny Walker came out on top from this battle and added a second point to his scorecard.

From Round 4, onward, Billy Bolt took over. In Budapest, Hungary, Bolt went fastest again in a reverse grid Final 2. In Round 5 in Belgrade, Serbia, Bolt struck immediately with his best lap on lap 1, opening up a massive 1.807 secondgap to the next best time. Bolt completed the streak in Round 6 in Newcastle, Great Britain, this time taking the point by the smallest of margins, just just 0.155 seconds ahead of Jonny Walker. That run brought Bolt to four points, which mathematically secured the Acerbis Best Lap Prestige victory before the final round.

Round 7 in Douai, France, flipped the script on the night. With Billy Bolt absent, the field had room to breathe. Eddie Karlsson (SWE, Stark Factory Racing) grabbed the fastest lap – and did it on an electric bike!
