ABESTONE DAY 2 - MAIN RACE RECAP

Описание: Manuel Lettenbichler won the Abestone Hard Enduro Gold Final by more than six minutes to take maximum points from Round 5 of the 2026 FIM Hard Enduro World Championship. Only five riders completed the full six laps of the Val di Luce circuit — and Lettenbichler was never in trouble at the front of them.

Mitch Brightmore rode a composed second for his fourth podium from five rounds, while the battle for the final step on the box played out across nearly three hours of Tuscan mountain terrain. Teodor Kabakchiev held off James Moore by more than four and a half minutes to take third, with Mario Román completing the group of six-lap finishers in fifth.

For Moore, fourth place was the standout Junior result — and it counts. He leaves Abestone seven points behind Ashton Brightmore in the FIM Hard Enduro Junior World Championship. Three rounds remain.

Billy Bolt finished twelfth but posted the third-quickest lap of the entire Gold class. The speed is back.

Lettenbichler leads the overall championship on 150 points, 24 clear of Mitch Brightmore. Round 6 is the Roof of Africa in Lesotho, 24–26 September.
