Billy Bolt makes it four-in-a-row with SuperEnduro GP of Hungary victory!

A sensational round four of the 2025/2026 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship saw Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Billy Bolt remain unbeaten to claim the overall victory in Budapest, Hungary.

• Fourth Prestige win for Billy Bolt in 2025/2026 season
• Junior class sees Milan Schmüser win again
• Wojtek Walczak extends Youth Cup lead with victory in Budapest

Fourteen-thousand spectators filled the MVM Dome stadium in Budapest, Hungary, to watch an action-packed night of racing for round four of the FIM SuperEnduro World Championship. Entertaining the crowd with thrilling racing, it was Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Billy Bolt who stole the show by claiming the overall Prestige class win. In the Junior class, Germany’s Milan Schmüser (Beta) was pushed hard all the way by Manuel Gómez (Stark) for the top step of the podium, while Poland’s Wojtek Walczak (KTM) took his second overall victory of the season in the Youth Cup category.

Prestige — SuperPole

Continuing to assert himself as the rider to beat, Bolt delivered yet another masterful performance in SuperPole to secure the win for the fourth time this season. With the rock garden proving the critical section of the lap, Bolt executed it to perfection to top the classification by 0.656 seconds over X-Grip Racing’s Mitch Brightmore, with Triumph Factory Racing Enduro Team’s Jonny Walker third. A strong ride from RIEJU Factory Racing’s Dominik Olszowy saw him slot in to fourth, while Stark Future’s Toby Martyn enjoyed his best SuperPole result of the season with fifth.

Prestige — Final 1

From the drop of the start gate for Prestige Final 1, the racing had the 14,000-strong spectators inside the MVM Dome on their feet. Walker took the Diverse Extreme Team holeshot, but immediately faced an attack for the race lead by Bolt. The duo came together on the rock garden, opening a gap for Martyn to emerge from the chaos in first position. The Stark rider used the clear track to his advantage as the riders behind him continued to trip themselves up. With just two minutes to go, Martyn had opened his lead out to an incredible 13 seconds over Bolt, who had recovered to second. But with less than two laps to go, a chance of a debut victory evaporated with a crash in the rock garden. Capitalising, Bolt gladly inherited the race lead and duly took the Final 1 victory. Remounting, Martyn settled for a career-best second place, with Brightmore shadowing him across the finish line in third.

Prestige — Final 2

After the excitement of Final 1, anticipation was high as the Prestige class lined up for Final 2. This time it was Fast Eddy Racing’s Harry Edmondson who took the Diverse Extreme Team holeshot, while Walker would face an uphill battle from last having got stuck on the first obstacle. Working his way through the pack, Bolt picked off Edmondson and Raposeira Bubbles Racing Team’s Diogo Vieira to take the lead on lap two. Never headed, he went on to take a comfortable nine-second margin of victory over Brightmore in second. A strong recovery saw Walker fight his way back to third, ahead of the Stark Future duo of Karlsson and Martyn in fourth and fifth, respectively.

Prestige — Final 3

Brightmore took the final Diverse Extreme Team holeshot of the night in Final 3, but it was Bolt who led as they exited the rock garden for the first time. Initially, it looked like Bolt would checkout to a comfortable win, but falling victim to the rock garden at the midway distance allowed Brightmore back in front. With two laps to go, Bolt closed the gap to his rival, and with Brightmore leaving the door open as they cleared the rock garden, Bolt executed a textbook block pass to lead once more. With no further mistakes, Bolt took the win over Brightmore, with Walker third.

Prestige — Overall

Claiming SuperPole, three race wins, along with taking the ACERBIS Best Lap, Bolt dominated proceedings in Budapest to secure the top step of the podium at round four. A strong night at the office, resulted in Brightmore claiming his best result of the season with second overall, while Walker made it an all-British podium in Hungary with third. Eddie Karlsson edged out his Stark Future teammate Martyn by one point to finish fourth, with Martyn fifth.

Junior — Fourth victory for Schmüser

The FIM Junior SuperEnduro World Championship saw Germany’s Milan Schmüser (Beta) race to the overall victory for the fourth time this season. However, Schmüser was pushed hard all the way.

In Final 1, Schmüser took the holeshot, but a crash on the following rock garden saw him slip down the leaderboard. Spain’s Manuel Gómez (Stark) took over the race lead, with USA’s Niko Piazza (Triumph) third. Despite leading for the majority, Gómez faced an attack by Schmüser with two laps to go, and with the German taking the lead, he secured his first win of the night.

In Final 2, Gómez looked for redemption, and found it. Fighting his way to the front with less than three minutes to go, the young Spaniard kept out of trouble to secure his first-ever race win and also the first race victory for Stark in the FIM SuperEnduro World Championship. Britain’s Toby Shaw (GASGAS) finished second, with Schmüser third.

For the third and final Junior race, Schmüser made no mistakes claiming a start-to-finish victory. Gómez continued his run of form to finish in second, while 2025 FIM Europe Cup series winner, Fynn Hannemann (Beta), carded his best result of the season in third.

With his 1-3-1 results, Schmüser took the overall victory by just one point over Gómez in second, while extending his championship lead to a healthy 53 points. Shaw completed the Junior class podium in third. Hannemann took fourth overall, with Piazza rounding out the top five.

Youth — Walczak enjoys overall win in Budapest

Proving consistency earns points, Poland’s Wojtek Walczak (KTM) held his head high in demanding conditions to claim the overall win in the Youth Cup category, and extend his championship lead to 16 points after round four.

Considered the most challenging course of the season to date, round four in Budapest pushed the Youth Cup riders to their maximum. In Final 1, it was Spain’s Eneko Martinez (Beta) who raced his way to a debut victory. The Spaniard took the win by nine seconds over Walczak, with Austria’s Luca Kropitsch (KTM) third, followed by 14-year-old German sensation Max Eppelman (KTM) fourth.

In Final 2, Slovakia’s Tomáš Merašicky (Husqvarna) held the lead for the majority of the race. However, despite starting nearly last, Britain’s Connor Watson (Sherco) raced his way onto the wheel tracks of the young Slovakian. Overtaking him on the rock garden on the final lap, Watson claimed the win over Merašicky, with Walczak finishing third.

Thanks to his consistent 2-3 scorecard, Walczak earned the overall win in Budapest, with Watson second. With a pair of fourth place results, Eppelmann secured his debut podium of third in what is only his second-ever SuperEnduro. Behind the top three, Martinez and Kropitsch finished fourth and fifth, respectively.

Perfect night sees Billy Bolt claim overall SuperEnduro victory in Spain

The third round of the 2025/2026 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship marked another dominant performance by Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Billy Bolt, with the Brit claiming the top step of the podium in Bilbao, Spain.

• Dominant Prestige victory for Billy Bolt in Spain
• Jonny Walker and Mitch Brightmore complete the podium
• Debut Youth Cup victory for Connor Watson

The 2025/2026 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship delivered an incredible night of racing at round three inside the Bizkaia Arena in Bilbao, Spain. Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Billy Bolt thrilled the packed-out stadium with an incredible display of riding to win all three Prestige races. Germany’s Milan Schmüser (Beta) enjoyed a hat trick of victories in the Junior class, while 15-year-old Connor Watson (Sherco) recorded his debut overall win in the Youth Cup category.

Prestige – SuperPole

With the top seven riders gathered for SuperPole, it was Bolt who took the fastest time for the third outing this season. The Husqvarna rider executed a perfect lap, becoming the only rider to dip inside the 34-second marker. Triumph Factory Racing Enduro Team’s Jonny Walker proved the closest rider to Bolt, placing just 0.667 seconds behind Bolt in second. Stark Future’s Eddie Karlsson edged out Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Josep Garcia for third, while Raposeira Bubbles Racing Team’s Diogo Vieira completed the top five.

Prestige – Final 1

With a short start straight for round three in Bilbao, riders were focused on a fast reaction out of the gate as they lined up for Final 1. Timing it to perfection, Walker claimed the opening Diverse Extreme Team holeshot of the night. But with Bolt on his wheel tracks, there was no time to relax. For the first three minutes, the duo battled it out as Walker fended off every attack from the five-time world champion. However, a crash by Walker as they began lap five gifted Bolt the race lead, and ultimately the race win by 17 seconds. Walker remounted to secure second, but was disappointed by what could have been. Karlsson enjoyed a comfortable ride for third, while X-Grip Racing’s Mitch Brightmore placed fourth. Taking a season-best result, Beta AG Racing’s Alfredo Gomez completed the top five.

Prestige – Final 2

For Prestige Final 2 it was Brightmore who grabbed the all-important Diverse Extreme Team holeshot. The young Brit, who dislocated his shoulder during the morning training, used the clear track to his advantage to control an early race lead. Riding strongly, he led for the first three laps, before Walker and Bolt pushed their way through. Walker held off Bolt for a further three laps before Bolt found away past the Triumph rider with about five laps to go. Bolt rode clear for his second victory of the night, with Walker second. A heroic ride saw Brightmore claim third, with RIEJU Factory Racing’s Dominik Olszowy fourth. A three-way battle for fifth on the final lap resulted in Garcia completing the top five.

Prestige – Final 3

Making it two Diverse Extreme Team holeshots in Spain, Walker was fastest out of the starting gate for Final 3. Once again, he had Bolt on his wheel tracks as the duo quickly separated themselves from the rest of the pack. Walker was determined to keep his rival at bay, and for five laps maintained the race lead despite numerous attacks by Bolt. But with five laps to go, a mistake by Walker in the rock garden was enough to let Bolt through, claiming his third victory of the night over Walker in second. Another incredible ride by Brightmore saw him finish third, with Karlsson and Vieira rounding out the top five ahead of Toby Martyn (Stark Future) in sixth.

Prestige – Overall

Three wins, along with claiming the SuperPole, resulted in Bolt earning his third consecutive overall victory of the season. Walker, enjoying his best performance of the season, placed as runner-up. In what proved to be the ride of the night, Brightmore nursed a dislocated shoulder for third. Karlsson scored strongly for fourth overall, while Garcia edged out Gomez on a tiebreaker to complete the top five.

Junior – Milan Schmüser keeps his win streak alive in Bilbao

As winner of the Junior class in Poland and Germany, Germany’s Milan Schmüser (Beta) arrived in Spain as the rider to beat. In Final 1, Schmüser initially took the race lead and looked to have things his own way. However, multiple mistakes allowed Spain’s Alex Puey (KTM) through. The Spaniard was determined to put on a show for his home fans and controlled the race lead. Finally, with one lap to go, Schmüser found his way back in front and took the win. Puey crossed the finish line in second, with Britain’s Toby Shaw (GASGAS) third.

In Final 2, it was Burts Crayston (KTM) who led the first three laps before Schmüser took control of the race lead and rode clear for a six-second margin of victory. Executing one of his best rides of the season, Spain’s Manuel Gomez (Stark Future) claimed second, while Shaw passed Crayston on the final lap for third.

Disaster struck Schmüser in Final 3, with the German crashing at the start. Remounting last, he set about working his way to the front. Puey led the way, with Shaw challenging him for the race lead, eventually taking it at the midway point of the race. Unfortunately, with one lap to go, Shaw crashed out of the race lead. Now up to second, Schmüser took full advantage and raced on to take the win. Puey overtook Shaw to finish second, with Shaw ending Final 3 in third. As a result, the final event classification saw Schmüser claim the overall victory from Shaw, with Puey placing one point behind in third. Gomez ended his night in fourth, with Germany’s Henry Strauss (KTM) edging out Crayston for fifth.

Youth – Debut overall win for Connor Watson

Bilbao was a night to remember for Britain’s Connor Watson (Sherco), with the young 16-year-old claiming his debut overall victory in the Youth Cup class. In the opening Final, it was championship leader Wojtek Walczak (KTM) who put himself into an early lead, with Watson in second, while Luca Kropitsch (KTM) – winner of round two – crashed early on. Out front, Walczak continued to clock in clean laps. Extending his advantage to a very comfortable 34 seconds, he secured the opening victory of the night over Watson in second, with Spain’s Eneko Martinez (Beta) third.

For the second and final Youth Cup race of the night, it was Watson who battled his way into the race lead on lap one. Walczak worked his way into second and gave chase after Watson. But mistakes were quick to follow the young Polish rider. Slipping back to third, behind Watson and Martinez, resulted in Watson clinching the overall Youth Cup victory in Spain. A 1-3 scorecard earned Walczak the runner-up result, with Martinez taking third to secure his first podium result of the season on home soil. Making his first appearance in the championship, having just turned 14 years old leading into round three, Germany’s Max Eppelmann (KTM) ended his night fourth overall. Ireland’s Alex Andrews (KTM) enjoyed another strong ride in his debut SuperEnduro season to complete the top five in fifth.

Stark Future’s Toby Martyn, making his first SuperPole appearance in the 2025/2026 season, was next to race and bettered Olszowy’s time. Although qualifying fastest, Walker made a mistake in the sand corner and could only take fifth. In the end, it was Bolt who claimed the SuperPole win for the second time this season. As the only rider to dip under the 38-second barrier, Bolt took the top spot by 0.370 seconds over Garcia in second.

Prestige – Final 1

With tension mounting ahead of Prestige Final 1, the top SuperPole qualifiers took to the front row of the starting grid, with Walker opting for the inside gate.

A mistake by Bolt saw his lead short-lived, with Walker taking control. Bolt was quick to regroup, but Walker held firm and kept the Husqvarna rider at bay.

Prestige – Final 2

Benefitting from a front-row start for the second Prestige Final, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Manuel Lettenbichler took the Diverse Extreme Team holeshot in front of his home crowd in Germany. However, an incredible start from row two saw Bolt power past Lettenbichler in the following sand corner to put himself into the lead. From there, Bolt was never headed, leading every lap to secure his second victory of the night by over seven seconds.

Schmüser overcame some mistakes to secure second, with Spain’s Manuel Gómez (Stark) coming home third.

For Final 2, Schmüser made no mistakes this time around. A clean opening lap put him into the lead and from there he pulled away to win by eight seconds over his countryman Henry Strauss (KTM), with Gómez once again taking third, while Shaw crossed the line in fourth.

With the chance of an overall home win up for grabs, Schmüser emerged from the first corner of Final 3 with the holeshot. However, this time, Shaw was on his wheel tracks. For the entire race Shaw did everything he could to force Schmüser into a mistake. But as the laps wore down, the German held firm to take the win and with it the overall victory in Riesa. A great night by Shaw saw him finish as runner-up to Schmüser, while Strauss edged out Gómez by one point to make it a German 1-3 at round two.

Prestige – SuperPole

Entering SuperPole, it was Triumph Factory Racing Enduro Team’s Jonny Walker who held the quickest time in qualification. RIEJU Factory Racing’s Dominik Olszowy took to the track first, setting a time that would eventually earn him sixth. Making his SuperEnduro debut, EnduroGP champion KTM Factory Racing’s Josep Garcia impressed with fifth. However, it was Bolt who set the tone. Dipping inside the 38-second marker, he clocked the quickest time by 0.349 seconds over the X-Grip Racing duo of Mitch and Ash Brightmore in second and third, respectively. A crash by Walker put him on the back foot in seventh.

Prestige – Final 1

With anticipation building for the beginning of Final 1, it was Bolt who immediately showed his rivals a clean pair of heels. Grabbing the Diverse Extreme Team holeshot, he put himself out front. Behind him, the battle was on with Brightmore brothers, Mitch and Ash, fighting for second and third, as Walker worked his way through traffic. As the laps ticked past, Bolt secured the first race win of the night over Mitch Brightmore. A final corner clash between Ash Brightmore and Jonny Walker saw Ash regroup fastest to take third, while Stark Future’s Eddie Karlsson capitalised on Walker’s incident to finish fourth.

Prestige – Final 2

With the start order reversed for race two, it was Fast Eddy Racing’s Harry Edmondson who took the Diverse Extreme Team holeshot. Raposeira Bubbles Racing Team’s Diogo Vieira quickly moved into the race lead. He held it for the first two laps, until Walker pushed his way in front, with Bolt also moving past the Portuguese rider for second. A crash by Bolt gave Walker some welcome breathing room with over three minutes to go. With Bolt unable to reel the Triumph rider back in, Walker controlled the pace to take a deserved victory over Bolt. Ash Brightmore followed them home for third, with Karlsson and Vieira rounding out the top five.

Prestige – Final 3

With his eyes set on clinching the overall win at round one, Bolt took the Diverse Extreme Team holeshot in Final 3 and quickly gapped his rivals. Behind him, drama unfolded in the second corner with both Brightmore brothers coming together. Ash came off worst. Injuring his knee, he made an early exit from the race. Holding a strong second behind Bolt, Karlsson found himself on the cusp of a debut overall podium result for Stark Future. Fighting every lap, the Swede held second for the first four laps before eventually giving way to a charging Walker. Behind the top three, Olszowy took his best result of the night with fourth, while Hard Enduro champion, Manuel Lettenbichler (KTM) was fifth.

Prestige – Overall

With two wins from three starts, along with topping SuperPole, Bolt emerged from round one as the overall winner. Highlighted with a win in Final 2, Walker took second, with Karlsson claiming a memorable debut podium for Stark Future in third. Hampered by his seventh-place result in Final 3, Mitch Brightmore still finished fourth overall. Despite being unable to complete Final 3, Ash Brightmore secured enough points to end his night fifth overall, ahead of Garcia in sixth.

Junior – Flawless ride from Schmüser in Gliwice

With three wins from three starts, Germany’s Milan Schmüser (Beta) recorded a perfect start to his FIM Junior SuperEnduro World Championship campaign in Poland. The German was near-flawless throughout the night. In Final 1, he controlled the race from start to finish to begin his evening strong. In Final 2, he worked his way through the field to clinch the victory with a last lap overtake. Knowing a chance of claiming the overall win was on the cards, he put the finishing touches to his night with a win in Final 3.

Behind him, it was the reigning FIM Youth Cup champion Ramón Godino (Beta) who raced to second overall in his Junior class debut. The young Spaniard proved he’s more than ready to challenge the Junior category frontrunners by leading the majority of Final 2 before eventually finishing second. With a final 5-2-4 scorecard, Godino will be one to watch next time out in Germany.

Unable to rekindle his overall Junior class win from 12 months ago in Gliwice, Britain’s Toby Shaw (GASGAS) could still be pleased with ending his night in third overall. The young Brit overcame a shaky seventh in Final 1 by improving to fourth in Final 2, before completing his evening with second in Final 3. Missing out on a possible overall podium in a tiebreaker with Shaw, Spain’s Alex Puey (KTM) completed round one in fourth overall, with fellow countryman Manuel Gomez (Stark Future) fifth.

Youth – Walczak claims home win in Poland

In the Youth class, round one proved a night to remember for Poland’s Wojtek Walczak (KTM). With the support of the PreZero Arena behind him, the youngster raced his way to the top step of the podium. A strong start for Walczak in race one saw him take a debut victory over Austria’s Luca Kropitsch (KTM) in second, with Poland’s Adam Bilik (Husqvarna) third. For race two, it was Britain’s Connor Watson (Sherco) who emerged from the first corner with the race lead.

A historic SuperEnduro title chase ahead

Prestige World Championship

Superpole

With the demanding track proving difficult to master, it was Billy Bolt (GBR) who showed his class to come out on top. Despite a couple of mistakes over the course of his hot lap, the newly crowned world champion delivered a time almost one and a half seconds faster than his nearest rival. Second place went to Ashton Brightmore (GBR), with his brother, Mitchell Brightmore (GBR), placing third – both of the two GASGAS racers looked smooth and controlled on track.

Final 1

Bolt took the holeshot and initially looked unbeatable on track, but after getting out of shape on lap one, Mitchell Brightmore momentarily took the lead. It was short-lived however, as Bolt got back out in front and demonstrated his class dominance from the front. While chasing the champion, a hard landing damaged Mitchell’s rear shock, dropping him down the order. Meanwhile Ashton Brightmore fought his way through to second place, followed by Stark Future-mounted Eddie Karlsson (SWE). Jonny Walker (GBR) held on for an important fourth place.

Final 2

Walker, starting from the front row in the reverse-grid second final, secured the holeshot and opened up an early lead. Bolt, who rounded the first turn in second-to-last place immediately got his head down and started to make his way through the field and was up to second place before the end of the second lap. It was Cooper Abbott (USA) who initially placed third, but he was passed by both Brightmore brothers at the end of lap four. With Bolt making it two from two at the chequered flag, Walker clinched second, with Mitchell Brightmore third.

Final 3

An intense start to final three saw Bolt just edge out Karlsson for the holeshot, with the Swede slotting in behind the world champion and looking smooth on the increasingly demanding track. Bolt’s ride at the front wasn’t quite perfect however – one mistake saw the Husqvarna rider go over the bars, but he was able to rejoin the race without losing position. Managing the challenging track better than his rivals, Bolt took the race win to complete the hat-trick. Walker held on for second, with Ashton Brightmore third. Mitchell Brightmore, following a bad start that saw him dead last on lap one, delivered an incredible ride to steal fourth place from Karlsson by a mere three hundredths of a second.

Final standings

Having secured the championship one round previously, there was nothing for Bolt to prove in France at round seven, but the Brit delivered the good regardless – Superpole and three race wins. Walker clinched second place on the night from Ashton Brightmore with the duo equal on points. That result was mirrored in the final championship standings, with Walker placing second and Ashton Brightmore third. Mitchell Brightmore took fourth, while Eddie Karlsson capped off a historic season for Stark Future in SuperEnduro by completing the top-five with fifth.

Junior World Cup

Final 1

With Milan Schmüser (GER) taking the holeshot, closely followed by Szymon Kus (POL) and Henry Strauss (GER), a three-way battle for the lead immediately broke out in the first few laps of the Junior-class final. Roland Liszka (HUN) soon fought his way up into third, right before Schmüser went down in the rocks, losing his advantage. However, riding smoothly and without mistakes, Schmüser got back into the lead and controlled the race from the front, all the way to the line. A bike issue for Kus resulted in him dropping down the order, with Liszka taking advantage to move up to second and Toby Shaw (GBR) getting the better of Marc Fernandez Serra (ESP) for third place.

Final 2

Fastest out the reverse grid for the second final, Marius Popovici (ROU) secured the holeshot but was soon passed by Fernandez for the lead on lap one. Shaw dropped into second place with Schmüser third. Mistake-free up front, Fernandez was caught by the hard-charging Schmüser at the halfway point, with the German momentarily getting out in front. A mistake by Schmüser saw Fernandez retake first place, which he held to the chequered flag to clinch the FIM SuperEnduro Junior World Cup title with one race to spare. Schmüser held on for second, with Roland Liszka coming out best in the battle for third place.

Final 3

Race three in the Junior category was all about Schmüser. The vice champion took the holeshot and never looked back, putting in a smooth and calculated ride to victory. Liszka and Shaw placed second and third for the first half of the race, but mistakes dropped both riders back, with Fernandez and Strauss moving through to round out the race podium. Fourth place went to Liszka ahead of Shaw – a move that would secure the Hungarian third place in the overall world cup standings

With his 4-1-2 race results, newly crowned champion Marc Fernandez was second on the day, with Roland Liska taking third in France and claiming third overall in the final championship standings, just one single point ahead of Toby Shaw.

Youth World Cup

Final 1
Fraiser Lampkin (GBR) got a great jump out of the gate to claim the first holeshot of the night. With Ramón Godino Gómez (ESP) slotting in behind the Brit, the two class leaders were then locked in a battle for the lead that would last for most of the race. With lapped traffic adding an extra challenge, it was Godino who came out on top, hitting the front with one minute to go and holding that position to the flag. With Lampkin ultimately second and Connor Watson (GBR) third, Godino’s race win secured the Spaniard the 2024/2025 FIM SuperEnduro Youth World Cup title.

Final 2

With the track inside the Arena Stade Couvert de Liévin deteriorating fast, the Youth class lined up for their second final of the night. Lampkin got the holeshot again, closely followed by title holder Godino. The two rivals soon opened up an advantage out front, but a small mistake by Godino dropped him down the order. Lampkin went on to take his fourth race win of the season, with Godino regrouping well to finish as runner-up. Michal Laska (POL), who had held third for much of the race, was pipped at the line by Luca Kropitsch (AUT).
