SportsTranscript
02:06Here's how the riders line up, same as they did for race one, based on their time practice.
02:11B-group was quickest than A-group, so B-group, Ricardo Bauer goes first, Gennaro Utec, who
02:17was quickest in A-group, he goes to line second.
02:19He crashed down the start straight yesterday.
02:21He's had a face full of stitches.
02:23He's lining up for race two today.
02:24Moritz Erneke, your winner from race one.
02:27What a fantastic ride that was, ahead of Slaney Goya and Ryan Opliger, who came home in third.
02:33But Goya, Uccellini, Graco, the rest of the riders there, as they line up, Bertrand Torres goes
02:38to line 10, could have sent Priem.
02:39Priem was unlucky in race one.
02:41He was running up there for a while in, what, sort of seventh, eighth place, and then tipped
02:46over.
02:48Then she came home in 23rd place, but it was a bright start for the young Belgian.
02:58There's your winner from race one.
03:03Moritz Erneke, the Norman KTM factory rookie's rider.
03:07His teammate, Ricardo Bauer, was fourth in race one.
03:12Slaney Goya, second.
03:17The Yamaha Europe Monster Energy MJC rider, former European champion.
03:23In 85, a couple of years ago, looking to try and overturn that result.
03:29That was your fastest rider in time practice yesterday.
03:32He's not been on the bike for a while, actually.
03:33Back from a recent injury, but Ricardo Bauer, Norman KTM, factory rookies, put in a good
03:39stint yesterday.
03:40Remember, he was victorious in the last race of the year in Belgium in 2025.
03:47Eventually came home for 17th in the championship.
03:49Missed, what, three, four, five rounds over the course of the season.
03:52Ryan Opliger put in a good shift as well.
03:54He came home third in race one.
03:57So just to give you a recap there, because obviously in terms of podiums and things like
04:00that, Moritz Erneke was your winner in race one.
04:02From Slaney Goya, Ryan Opliger, Ricardo Bauer, David Krakow, Liam Bruneau was six.
04:08Eduardo Regganti, seven.
04:10Bertram Tourius, eight.
04:11Andrea Uccellina, nine.
04:12Timo Boiver, ten.
04:14Off to the Netherlands.
04:17And while we wait for the green flag and the fly race in 15-second board, we'll go a little
04:21bit further than that.
04:22Storm Maiman was 11.
04:23Jorge Salvador, he got the whole show, actually.
04:25The rider number 385.
04:27Ricardo Pini was 13.
04:28We were hoping for more from him.
04:30Then Melka Larsson and Lucas Leoc in 15th place.
04:34And it was Aston, Alice, Torva Mechel and Leo Di Fanar, Alejandro Torres and Drew Stock
04:39getting a point.
04:40Fly Racing, 15-second board up for the final time this weekend.
04:43EAMX 125, race two, about to get underway here in Almonte.
04:48South-West Spain, close to the Portuguese border.
04:51Who would it be that grabs that all-important hole shot?
04:55Utec, inside gate, number 911.
04:59He gets a good jump.
05:01He crashed around about now in race one.
05:03And he's kept it on two wheels this time around.
05:06Big, fast, sweeping, left-hand turn.
05:11275 Briganti, looked like he made a good start there.
05:14Another rider taking liberties on the flat track to the inside.
05:18Not sure who that was.
05:18Maybe we're going to replay off that, but...
05:21Leading the way, top of your screen.
05:23It is one of the TM riders, and it is Ricardo Pini.
05:26211, leading the way.
05:29Your winner from race one, Erneke there in second place.
05:32Then we've got one of the R4ME, Spain riders, and it's Alba.
05:36Number 16, Jordi Alba.
05:45So, something for the Spanish fans to cheer about.
05:49They already had a lot to cheer about yesterday on Saturday.
05:54But Pini leads.
05:56Erneke second, Alba third, Bertram Torius around the outside in fourth.
06:00Rider down at the back there.
06:04Torius moving up into third.
06:06Through those waves.
06:11Can he get into second?
06:13Oh, he takes a dive around the outside of Erneke.
06:16And the Austrian never saw that coming.
06:25So, a bit of a wake-up call, then, for your winner from race one yesterday.
06:28Who knows he's got pace.
06:29Good to see they've left a little bit of character in the track as well.
06:33Don't worry about those grandstands.
06:34They'll be full later on.
06:36It's early here.
06:38This part of the world for this first 1.25 race.
06:42But Pini, who had two podiums last year, a third and a second, in Cozart and in France.
06:54Finished ninth in the championship campaign.
06:56Didn't pick up a race win, but showed that he could be a contender if he gets a good start,
07:00which is not what he got yesterday.
07:0223rd, 24th on the opening lap.
07:04Battled his way through to 13th by the time the checkered flag fell.
07:09And that was the last lap pass as well on Melka Larsson of Sweden.
07:13And he's starting to run away with it here.
07:15Nicely dancing around on the back wheel over those braking bumps.
07:19Gennaro Jutec in there as well.
07:20Coming into view now on the left-hand side on that Pantic.
07:23So, we've got Pini, Torius just there on the 71.
07:26Then, Erneke, third, hit the jump now on the 9.29.
07:31Just looking to make a move at the inside of Bertram Torius here,
07:35who may give him a little bit of room to manoeuvre,
07:37but decides, no, let's shut the door.
07:41Firmly in your face, young man.
07:4316, Jordi Alba, then Gennaro Jutec.
07:46Eduardo Reganthe in 6, Ryan Obliger 7, Ricardo Bauer 8.
07:48A lot better start, much better start for him
07:52than he had yesterday outside of the top 15 on the opening lap.
07:57Challenge for the lead, coming on here.
08:00Bertram Torius from out of nowhere gets good drive and leads
08:04on what is the first official opening lap.
08:07Remember, finish line to finish line.
08:19Bertram Torius in race 1.
08:22Again, another rider started outside of the top 15,
08:24top 20, carved his way up to 8,
08:27roundabout the halfway mark,
08:28but by then wasn't able to do anything about
08:30Eduardo Reganthe, who started 3rd early on
08:32on his 275 machine.
08:39So what can Bertram Torius do from here?
08:43The rider who was 23rd in the championship last year
08:49didn't score on three occasions,
08:50got a best-over result of 11th at Trentino.
08:55Here's the pass look.
08:57Got the momentum and the drive around the outside.
08:59Peeney went inside defensive,
09:01couldn't quite get through those first couple of waves
09:04efficiently enough.
09:05And in the end, Torius goes on by.
09:14Trying to put some distance,
09:15takes a look over the shoulder.
09:17Wants to know where the man in red is,
09:18Ricardo Peeney.
09:27Lurking in the background there in 3rd place,
09:29at 9.29,
09:30Moritz Erneke,
09:31the younger of the Erneke brothers.
09:35Max in 2.50.
09:38Good to see Austria represented again.
09:43Coming through the ranks, of course.
09:47Great start, this for Jordi Alba.
09:49He's a couple of seconds off there in 4th position.
09:52And the number...
09:5516, Jordi Alba.
10:02Just there.
10:03Utec just behind him.
10:07Didn't score in the first race, Alba.
10:13All right, just looking down the leaderboard.
10:17Ricardo Bauer has been in.
10:19He's down to 24th, 34th place now.
10:23So, one of the favourites coming in this weekend.
10:28Even without too much time on the bike,
10:29he is now
10:30been down to 34th position.
10:33A lot of ground to make up.
10:35Meanwhile,
10:36making up a lot of ground is the rider in 3rd,
10:39closing in
10:39on Peeney on the 2.11 TM.
10:46The MCV Motorsport TM rider
10:48coming in to land now in red.
10:50Middle rider in shot,
10:512nd in the race.
10:522nd separate the first 3 riders
10:54of Bertram Torius,
10:55Ricciardo Peeney
10:56and Moritz Erneke.
10:58You put the podium out,
10:59the flag out now,
11:00Erneke would win
11:01with a win and a 3rd.
11:03Torius would be 2nd
11:05with a 8.1
11:07and Slaney Goya
11:08would be 3rd
11:09with a 2.8
11:10as it stands right now.
11:15Then Opliger and Peeney
11:16just off the podium.
11:18Slaney Goya
11:19up to 8th place at the moment.
11:20He's just found his way
11:21past Ryan Opliger.
11:24So Goya on the move.
11:28All of a sudden,
11:29Bertram Torius
11:29has put some distance
11:30between himself
11:31and his closest pursuer
11:33there, Ricciardo Peeney
11:34in red on the 2.11
11:35and all of a sudden
11:36as well,
11:37Alba getting closer.
11:38So too,
11:39Gennaro Jutek.
11:40We've got a rider down
11:41just after the Monster Energy
11:43jump in the background,
11:44probably in the right-hand turn.
11:50Nicely,
11:50I'm going to say
11:51nicely doubling his way.
11:53Look at the power
11:53pickup on that KTM
11:54of 9.29
11:56Erneke
11:58jumping long as well
11:59over some of those holes
12:00the other side of that
12:02offset
12:02where it's higher
12:03one side than the other.
12:08Ricciardo Peeney
12:09under pressure here.
12:10Bertram Torius
12:13making the most
12:13of this situation.
12:15Atlantic Factory
12:17rider.
12:26Erneke
12:27alongside.
12:28Going to have to go
12:28the long way around here.
12:32And almost got bumped
12:33to the outside.
12:34Peeney at least
12:34held it
12:35on as late as possible,
12:36braked as late as possible
12:38just to make it difficult
12:39for the young Austrian.
12:44Three laps complete.
12:45Bertram Torius
12:46continues to be
12:47the fastest rider
12:48on track
12:48until
12:49Gennaro Jutec
12:50shows up.
12:51He's found his way
12:52past Jordi Alba.
12:53He now moves in the fourth.
12:55He was about a tenth
12:56quicker than the race leader.
12:57Here he is
12:58coming in the view
12:58now behind these two.
13:07So looking a little bit
13:08like Scarface
13:08with all those stitches
13:09in his face
13:10from yesterday's
13:11start-straight crash.
13:12Gennaro Jutec
13:14digging in deep
13:16here this week
13:17and there he is
13:17the 9-11.
13:22Team-mate too
13:23Bertram Torius
13:24on that Fantic
13:25factory race
13:26in the MX machine.
13:33Looking to try
13:34and pick up
13:34as many points
13:35as possible.
13:35Didn't score
13:36in race one.
13:37Now ninth overall
13:38with a fourth place
13:39finish here.
13:50is he getting frustrated
13:52being sat there
13:53behind Riccardo Pini
13:54on the 2-11?
13:57TM
13:57see that hole
13:58he's getting over
14:00and also over
14:01on the far side
14:02there.
14:02Opliga getting
14:03getting over that.
14:04Bruno getting over
14:04that as well.
14:08Here is Slaney Goya
14:10currently in
14:11eighth place.
14:12Should have.
14:13Jordi Alba
14:14just ahead of him
14:15in red and yellow.
14:16There he is.
14:16Oh no,
14:16he's already found
14:17his way by.
14:18Hasn't he?
14:18Yes.
14:19And so too
14:19is Opliga.
14:21So we've got
14:21Cracow in six.
14:22Goya seven.
14:23Opliga eight.
14:24Alba now down
14:25to ninth place.
14:31Very choppy
14:31into that left-hander.
14:33Good to see
14:34they haven't
14:34completely fluffed
14:35it up for these
14:36guys overnight.
14:39Bit of character
14:40on the track.
14:41Literally
14:41is character building.
14:45Edoardo Briganti
14:46there.
14:47Coming in to land
14:47in the pink
14:48he's up to fifth
14:49Cracow six
14:50Goya seven
14:51Opliga eight.
14:52Alba has dropped
14:53down to ninth.
15:09So just under
15:1015 minutes
15:11plus two laps
15:12to go.
15:16Eernica.
15:19Passed Peeney.
15:20Peeney now
15:21third.
15:27Edoardo Briganti
15:28right there
15:29then Cracow

15:35the inside of the
15:36Italian here
15:36David Cracow
15:38Cracow having a
15:38fantastic start.
15:40Going to leave
15:41here fifth overall.
15:42Put the flag out
15:43now.
15:44Goes around the
15:44outside of
15:45fellow Italian
15:45fellow Italian
15:46Edoardo Briganti
15:47and Slenny Goya
15:47is also going to
15:48go through as well
15:49if he can get good
15:50drive through those
15:51waves which he
15:52can't.
15:54Just behind them
15:56Ryan Opliga
15:58then a slight gap
15:59then Bruno
16:00then Alba
16:01who's down to
16:0210th now.
16:04Briganti goes to the
16:05inside

16:06outside.
16:09Gets on the gas
16:10nice line

16:28squeeze

16:41any moment
16:42now
16:42he will
16:42be up

43:10The top three overall here this weekend, the opening round of the 2026 EMX 125 European Championship presented by FMF
43:19Racing.
43:20Your overall winner Moritz Eernicke, second Sleini Goyen, third Bertram Torius.
43:24We'll talk to the top three in a moment, but first let's check out the highlights from race two.
43:40I'll tell you what, Joe gets everywhere.
43:42Here's what happened race two, EMX 125, a flying start for Moritz Eernicke, but even better,
43:49Riccardo Pini who held a nice tight line, Eduardo Regganti tried to get around the outside, but couldn't.
43:56But it was Pini who led.
43:59Eernicke got himself into second, Jordi Alba was there in third on the 16th, Eduardo Regganti just up the inside
44:05of them.
44:06And a couple of positions further back, the number 71, Bertram Torius.
44:11Ryder ended up going down on that opening lap, but look at Torius from fourth to third with a move
44:16on the spanning.
44:17And then this move at the end of the straight to surprise Moritz Eernicke into second.
44:22He then challenged Pini for the lead.
44:26And whilst Pini then was dealing with Eernicke, Bertram was making a break for it.
44:31Gennaro Jutech was on the charge as well, riding with stitches in his face.
44:35But this was the talking point, the challenge for the lead, Eernicke went down.
44:39Bertram stayed up on two wheels.
44:41Eernicke was miffed because he fancied a 1-1.
44:44Pini tagged with Liam Brunot and crashed out of the race.
44:48He was in around about sixth place at that time.
44:51Tough blow for the Italian.
44:53This is how close it was in the final corner though.
44:55Bertram Torius hanging on from Slaney Goya.
44:57Eernicke third.
44:59Torius taking his first ever race win.
45:01Goya second.
45:02Eernicke third.
45:03And in the overall, it was Moritz Eernicke with a 1-3.
45:07Slaney Goya second overall with 2-2.
45:09And Bertram Torius 8-1.
45:12Third overall.
45:13That was your podium here.
45:14Obliga and David Krakow running out your top five.
45:18Here's how the championship looks.
45:20Eernicke in red as we head to round two.
45:22Just with one point over Slaney Goya.
45:25Bertram Torius just a handful of points further back.
45:28But what a great weekend to kick things off here in 2026.
45:31Moritz Eernicke, your overall winner from Slaney Goya and Bertram Torius.
45:44Moritz Eernicke, massive congratulations.
45:45That's your first EMX 125 overall.
45:48You won the first race.
45:49Quite a frustrating second race for you.
45:51But you do take the red plate to the next round.
45:54Yes, exactly.
45:54I'm really happy to take the red plate.
45:56It was a mixed weekend now with the second motor.
45:59But I'm really happy about the overall win.
46:01So, yeah, I'm really happy.
46:02Great job.
46:03Thanks, Moritz.
46:04Second overall today, we have Slaney Goya with two second place finishes.
46:08That second race, you were really on a charge.
46:10You had a lot of work to do.
46:12And Bertram made it very, very difficult.
46:14Yeah, it was a good weekend.
46:16I finished two times second.
46:17My start was not so good.
46:19But I'm good on the track.
46:21So I finished two times second.
46:23I'm very happy.
46:24Thank you to all my sponsors and my team and my family.
46:28Third overall, we have Bertram Torius.
46:30Bertram, much stronger second race for you.
46:32You held on to that race lead.
46:34Great confidence boost.
46:35And that's your first 125 race win.
46:37Yeah, I can't believe it.
46:39You know, got a good start today.
46:40And then, yeah, pass to the leader and then control the race.
46:45Lenny was really pushing at the end.
46:47But I hold on.
46:48And, yeah, thank you to my family, my mom and dad, my sister and my brother.
46:52And especially Kenny, I know you're watching.
46:55Thank you for everything you do for me.
47:02Third overall, Bertram Torius.
47:06Great weekend for him.
47:08Coming away with a race win and a podium.
47:10Third overall for the Fantec Factory Racing EMX rider from Denmark.
47:15He can build on that.
47:16From here going forward, is he going to be a title threat in 2026?
47:21Second overall for Yamaha Europe, Monster Energy MJC rider Slaney Goya.
47:27The team have finished second overall last year and came so close to winning the championship.
47:30Getting off to a bright start here with their latest prospect on the team.
47:35The tall Frenchman is definitely putting himself in the mix.
47:39Two second places here in Almonte.
47:41But your overall winner, Moritz Erneke, Norman KTM Factory Racing Rookies.
47:45An Austrian on the top step of the podium in the 125 division since Rennie Hoffer was victorious.
47:51Round three in Latvia 2018.
47:53First race win since Hoffer won Germany race one.
47:57Round four that same year before going out injured.
47:59Congratulations, Moritz Erneke.
48:02We're going to take a break.
48:04We will be back in about an hour.
48:0710.25.
48:09So just over an hour for MX250 race two.
48:13We'll see you then.
48:13Bye for now.
