G
erman rider Mani Lettenbi-
chler claimed his second
career Red Bull Tennessee
Knockout (TKO) victory after a
race-long battle with Canadian
Trystan Hart. Lettenbichler's last
win in Tennessee was in 2019 (he
finished third last year), and his
latest success padded his points
lead in the FIM Hard Enduro
World Championship with two
rounds left on the schedule. Hart
won his fourth AMA U.S. Hard En
-
duro Premier Championship, with
Cody Webb finishing runner-up.
Lettenbichler, of the Red Bull
KTM Factory Team, and Hart,
of the FMF KTM Factory Team,
battled back and forth, but a
bobble by the defending TKO
champ, Hart, on the penultimate
lap ultimately sealed the deal for
the German.
GasGas-mounted Wade Young
of South Africa finished on the
podium in third.
Rockstar Energy Husqvarna's
Colton Haaker was the top-finish-
ing American in seventh overall.
The long weekend of racing
kicked off in downtown Nashville
on Thursday night before the
main racing got underway Fri-
day at the Trials Training Center.
Webb won the prologue straight
rhythm event, which took over
Broadway Street with a man-
made enduro course. Fellow
Americans Colton Haaker and
Ryder LeBlond rounded out the
podium despite a strong list of
riders representing seven coun-
tries.
