Romain Febvre took second on the weekend behind Herlings. The Factory Kawasaki rider battled fellow countryman Tom Vialle in both races and got the better position each time around. Febvre made a late-race run at Herlings, but it was too little, too late for the 2025 champion. He hands over the number-one plate but sees a successful season, taking second overall in the championship standings. Tom Vialle rounded out the podium in third. His weekend was highlighted by ending Herlings' win streak in the Saturday qualify- ing race and later starting up front in both of Sunday's motos. Vialle also battled Andrea Adamo for fourth in the championship standings. The two MXGP rookies fought it out on track, with Vialle's 4-3 giving him the advantage. Third overall and fourth in the series is a solid outcome for the French rider's return to the MXGP championship. MX2 The MX2 title was all but decided heading into Sunday with Guil- lem Farres controlling the points chase. He just needed to finish the race to clinch the champion- ship, and a second-place result overall behind teammate Camden McLellan proved worthy of the number one plate. He is only the second Spanish champion and the first for the Triumph brand. "Camden passed me in the second corner and from there I just followed him; he had a good pace and I could not pass him, so second was really good for me," Farres said. "The sec- ond race was a bit the same, a difficult start, but I was riding comfortable. Going into the sea- son, we had a great winter. We worked a lot on and off the bike, and we got some improvements, and me and Camden always push each other to the limit. Next year I go up a class, the goal is always the same and that is to win, but I am going to have to learn a lot of things." Farres will not defend his title next year and instead jumps up to the MXGP division for 2027. Camden McLellan claimed WIND IN THE P46 Camden McLellan (8) led his teammate, Guillem Farres, to the win in race one. McLellan later took the day's overall win.
