Round 5 of the EMX125 and WMX Championship that took place at Lacapelle Marival in France over the weekend.

EMX125

Moritz Ernecker and Ricardo Bauer from the Norman KTM Racing Team had brilliant results from the weekend. In race one Moritz would have a fantastic star taking the holeshot and leading the race from start to finish. Not even a downed rider would get in his way for the win. Ricardo would not have the same luck with a bad start and coming out of lap one in P12. He slowly found his rhythm and started making his way to the front. Just unable to catch the leader Ricardo would finish in P2, just under 2 seconds behind Moritz.

Race two Ernecker would have another holeshot start but it was Bauer would put down an impressive start sitting in P2 after the first lap. Ricardo would soon after take the lead all the way to the end crossing the line 1^st with Ernecker in P3. This gap would allow Ricardo to take the overall top spot of the podium for round 5 of the championship with Moritz in P2.

Ricardo Bauer: “In the first race I didn't have a good start, but managing to come through from mid-pack to second was actually pretty amazing. Today I had a pretty good start, managed to stay at the front for almost the whole moto, so I'm pretty happy about it.”

Moritz Ernecker: “It was a clay weekend, I would say. The first moto was good, I took the win, so yeah. The second moto, maybe I took not so good lines and wasn't fast enough. But I'm happy to still take the second overall and still keep the red plate.”

Leaving the weekend Moritz currently leads the 2026 EMX125 Championship with 223 points, 38 points ahead of team mate Ricardo.
