In the Junior World Cup, Marc Fernandez took another commanding overall win, extending his lead. Despite showing strong pace, Milan Schmüser suffered costly mistakes in all three races, allowing Fernandez to secure two wins and third in the final. Henry Strauss claimed victory in Final 3, earning second overall on count back ahead of Schmüser. With one round to go, Fernandez holds a 36-point lead over Schmüser, while Toby Shaw remains third in the standings.

In the Youth class, Fraiser Lampkin delivered a flawless performance in Newcastle, claiming both race wins and securing his first overall victory of the season. Hugo Vukcevic and Ramón Godino Gómez joined him on the podium in second and third, respectively. With just one round remaining, Godino Gómez leads the Youth World Cup on 185 points, but Lampkin has closed the gap to 167, keeping the title fight alive.


Superpole

After topping timed practice by well over two seconds over his nearest rival, Bolt went into SuperPole full of confidence and fired up to secure pole position. It didn’t quite go all his way however, but a couple of small mistakes didn’t slow his pace, and the FE 350 racer took the win by one and a half seconds. Mitchell Brightmore second, and Jonny Walker third, with William Hoare delivering an excellent lap for fourth.

The race for second place was fought out between the Brightmore brothers, with Mitchell moving into second after the start, and Ashton soon taking third after passing Jonny Walker.

Walker then found himself under pressure from Eddie Karlsson, with the two swapping positions through the race.

With Bolt taking a commanding race win by over 13 seconds, Mitchell Brightmore claimed second, with brother Ashton a further 17 seconds behind. Walker held on for fourth, just two seconds ahead of Karlsson.


Race Two

For the reversed-grid second race, it was Dan Mundell who took the holeshot, but he was soon passed by Walker on lap one. Bolt took his time to make his way up through the field.

Jonny Walker

Avoiding any mistakes, he moved into second place at the end of lap one. A mistake by Bolt halted his progress, but at the same moment, Walker came off his Triumph while jumping across the tyres.

After remounting, both riders found themselves together on track, fighting for the lead. Eventually Bolt got ahead and began to open up an advantage. With Walker second, the Brightmore brothers were neck and neck for third, Dominik Olszowy was just behind, piling on the pressure.

Race Three

It was Walker who took the holeshot in race three, before opening up an early lead on lap one. However, he soon found himself under pressure from Bolt and the Brightmore brothers, with the race lead changing hands multiple times.

Bolt, who had already secured the world title, wasn’t holding back. Despite a couple of errors, he regained his composure to move into the lead when the leaders hit lapped traffic.

Billy Bolt – 2025 SuperEnduro Champion

“It’s been an incredible night here in Newcastle tonight. I know I came here into my home round with a good advantage but you can never take things for granted in SuperEnduro. The boys were pushing really hard tonight, especially in that last race – I think they thought that as I had won the title, I might ease off a little. Of course, I gave it my all as usual and was able to come out with three race wins. The crowd here have been amazing and I want to thank everyone who has supported me this season. Five titles in a row is fantastic. There’s still one round to go and you can be sure I won’t be backing down there either, I’ll be looking to finish the series on a high next weekend in France.”

Jonny Walker – P2

“I’ve come away with P2 tonight, which I’m really happy with, especially after a tough race one, finishing fourth. I struggled a little with the track tonight as it was quite difficult and everyone was on fire! I’m feeling great though after strong results in the second and third races, and I’ve extended my gap to third in the championship. I’m looking forward to the final round in France next week!”
