Girroir Sidelined D efending GNCC Champion Johnny Girroir will sit out a few rounds of the series as he recovers from injury. He plans to return for the final two rounds. The FMF KTM Factory Team racer broke his hand before the ISDE, where he helped guide the U.S. team to fourth overall in Italy. Girroir rode through the pain, but he and his team decided it was best to get the hand healed up before racing again. "I'm gutted to say I'll be miss - ing a couple more races," Girroir said. "My hand is still very sore and painful. I raced through the pain to make it through [the Six Days], but the team and I thought it was best to let it heal to get to 100 percent healthy and try to be ready to go for the last two rounds of GNCC and get our feet back in the game before coming out swinging in 2026."
