MXGP

ÁGUEDA (Portugal) 3 May 2025 – While the Crossodromo Internacional de Águeda saw bright sunshine for the morning sessions at the MXGP of Portugal, the ever changeable weather this close to the Atlantic coast struck with a huge downpour during the European Championship races to leave a muddy circuit for the MX2 and MXGP Qualifying Races, with very similar conditions to last season’s event!

The MXGP class saw multiple crashes for many top riders, but it was Lucas Coenen who took a clear victory for Red Bull KTM Factory Racing to continue the momentum from his overall win in Switzerland! Calvin Vlaanderen took a season best finish of second for Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP, ahead of Romain Febvre, who picked up his Kawasaki Racing Team MXGP machine more than once to claim third!

In MX2 it was a Red Bull KTM Factory Racing 1-2 for Andrea Adamo and Sacha Coenen, with last year’s winner Liam Everts winning a duel with his Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing teammate Kay de Wolf for third place.

As much as the amazing Águeda circuit can cope with wet weather and still provide a good platform for the racing, the forecast of more rain is likely to make things all the more unpredictable tomorrow!

After Febvre set fastest time in the first Free Practice session on a bone-dry circuit, he was just edged out of the top spot by Coenen, who went 54 thousandths of a second faster than the Kawasaki man in Time Practice! Coenen’s teammate Jeffrey Herlings pulled out all the stops on his very last lap to just edge Team Honda Motoblouz SR Motul rider Kevin Horgmo out of the top three.

From the wide-open blast down the soggy start straight and first two corners, Febvre led until Coenen cut to the inside line to go past, but only for a few metres as he missed a gear before the big tabletop in front of the main grandstand!  However, on the first corner of the first full lap, the Frenchman dropped the bike in a tight left hander and restarted in eighth, handing Coenen the vital leading position, with Herlings and Vlaanderen close behind. 

Pauls Jonass was enjoying a good start on his return for Kawasaki Racing Team MXGP, but was passed for fourth at the end of the first lap by Jeremy Seewer.  Sadly for the Swiss Aruba.it Ducati Factory MX Team rider, he crashed on the next lap, allowing Febvre through and past his teammate at the same time to reach fourth, as Jonass crashed himself half a lap later!

These incidents allowed Horgmo and Honda HRC’s lone wolf Ruben Fernandez to climb into fifth and sixth, with popular Swiss privateer Kevin Brumann holding seventh for MX-Handel Husqvarna Racing! Roan van de Moosdijk was also well placed for the KTM Kosak Team, with Jonass remounting in ninth ahead of the Fantic Factory Racing team leader Andrea Bonacorsi.

Febvre slipped past Vlaanderen at the start of the Pit Lane straight on lap five, as Jonass crashed again, as did Bonacorsi, elevating the other Fantic of Glenn Coldenhoff, and the other Ducati of Mattia Guadagnini to rise into the top ten!

First-round winner Maxime Renaux was uncertain of even participating in the week before the event, but the Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP man fought past Mattia to ninth before Seewer recovered to pass him on the last lap.  There was chaos up ahead however, as Fernandez dropped two places with an off-track excursion by the finish line, which saw him on the floor twice! 

The biggest incident of the race came on lap ten, as Herlings was cruising in second behind Coenen and caught his foot on a bump, losing control over a downhill jump and hitting the ground! Febvre was on the scene in mere moments and could not avoid the Dutchman as he was upright and reaching for his bike! The impact put them both on the ground again, and Jeffrey has sadly posted online that he has broken at least a rib in the collision, but will try to race tomorrow.

Romain was up and going again quickly enough to hold third to the flag behind Vlaanderen, but the multiple accidents left Brumann in a career-best fourth position, ahead of an equally-significant result for Van de Moosdijk in fifth! Fernandez and Herlings recovered to finish sixth and seventh, with Coldenhoff eighth.

There were no such problems for Coenen, however, as he powered to a 13-second victory that puts him 49 points behind Febvre in the Championship, as the Frenchman closes to within 19 points of sadly absent series leader, Honda HRC’s Tim Gajser.

How tomorrow’s races will play out is anyone’s guess, although a strong start will help as always in the Portuguese mud!  Not to be missed!

Lucas Coenen: "The track was really brutal today. I messed up the start a bit and Romain (Febvre) closed me off, but I kept the pressure and he made a mistake and I was able to take over and control the race from there. The ruts are super harsh which which make it hard on the jumps. You can crash jump pretty easily with the water when you land, and I had a close call on the finish. But I stayed calm, kept it smooth, and overall it was a good day. Hopefully it’ll be a little less rough tomorrow—let’s see how it goes."

Red Bull KTM Factory Racing took first and second in Time Practice, after Sacha Coenen was top for them in Free Practice, but Simon Laengenfelder went over half a second quicker than Sacha in the end to take pole, with Kay de Wolf not far behind in third!

Although only thirteenth in Time Practice, 2023 World Champion Adamo was forceful out of the gate and rode around Laengenfelder to lead into turn two, and Coenen also went around the German on the tricky downhill section into turn three.  On a tough first lap for Simon, Everts then also passed him before the finish line, with De Wolf pouncing halfway around the circuit, forcing the Swiss GP winner to run off the track!  He still re-joined to keep fifth position.

Returning from injury for Kawasaki Racing Team MX2 was Mathis Valin, and he looked good in sixth place ahead of the Monster Energy Triumph Racing duo Guillem Farres and Camden McLellan, although the South African worked past his Spanish teammate on lap five, then took advantage of a crash from Valin on lap eight!

The Triumph riders finished in that order for sixth and seventh, ahead of a spirited charge from WZ-Racing KTM’s Quentin Prugnieres, while Honda HRC rider Ferruccio Zanchi recovered from an awful start to pass Valin for ninth on the final lap.

De Wolf, meanwhile, had run off track all by himself on lap three, and try as he might he couldn’t get back past his teammate Everts, so they finished in third and fourth ahead of Laengenfelder, the Dutchman increasing his lead in the table slightly to four points.

For a few laps Sacha threated to close on Andrea at the top, although the team boarded him to say “BE SMART”, wary of the young Belgian’s eagerness to push to the front.  Adamo himself improved his lap times and made the race his own to take his second Qualifying Race win of the season,  and now sits exactly 20 points behind leader De Wolf in the series, with Everts now nine points behind the Italian.

With track preparation tough due to the rain, the circuit will serve up a very challenging day of racing tomorrow, but it promises to be another wild ride as the stars of the MXGP World Championship fight the elements as well as each other!

Andrea Adamo: "That was amazing. I didn’t expect to take the holeshot, especially from the gate I had, since I usually struggle a bit in time practice—that’s something I need to improve. But I knew the start would be key and I made it happen. It’s actually the first mud race I’ve ever won, so I’m really pumped, even if it’s just Saturday. It feels great."

ÁGUEDA (Portugal) 2 May 2025 – The 2025 MXGP of Portugal was officially launched on Friday with a special media event hosted at the iconic Pateira de Fermentelos, one of the Iberian Peninsula’s most treasured natural landmarks. The gathering served as the ceremonial start to a weekend of world-class motocross in Águeda, offering a moment to celebrate the region’s culture, natural beauty and conviviality.

However, before heading to the media event, riders from the MXGP and MX2 classes took to the track for the Blåkläder Start Practice, the dedicated session designed to fine-tune and finalise key bike settings ahead of the weekend. With starts playing a decisive role in both Saturday’s Qualifying Races and Sunday’s main events, the session is always a highlight of the Friday for the Riders as well as the media and fans present.

The event brought together many riders who were present from both the MXGP and MX2 classes, including Team HRC’s Ruben Fernandez and Ferruccio Zanchi, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Andrea Adamo, Lucas and Sacha Coenen, Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MX2’s Rick Elzinga and Karlis Reisulis, Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Liam Everts, MX Handel Racing’s Kevin Brumann, Venum Bud Racing Kawasaki’s Jake Cannon and Francisco Garcia, as well as Portuguese stars Luis Outeiro and Lobo Sandro among others.

The picturesque lakefront venue – a designated RAMSAR site and part of the NATURA 2000 network – served as the perfect backdrop. Known locally as “the enchanted lake,” the Pateira is a symbol of Águeda’s commitment to nature, sustainability and quality of life.

Adding cultural depth to the occasion was a performance by the Grupo Folclórico Senhora da Saúde de Fermentelos, who showcased the region’s musical and ethnographic heritage with traditional costumes, dance, and song faithful to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In a light-hearted and memorable moment, the group invited the riders and guests to join in the traditional dancing, creating a fun and relaxed atmosphere.

Guests were also treated to a taste of local gastronomy, with iconic regional dishes such as the renowned “Leitão da Bairrada” and “Pastéis de Águeda”, which could be accompanied by the exceptional wines and sparkling selections from the Bairrada region.

The MXGP of Portugal will completely kicked off continues through the weekend at the Águeda circuit, with racing across the MXGP, MX2, EMX125 and EMX250 categories.

After a thorough medical evaluation and impressive progress in his recovery, Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP’s Maxime Renaux has been officially cleared to compete in the MXGP of Portugal this weekend.

Initially taking a cautious approach based on preliminary medical assessments conducted late last week, Renaux has experienced a remarkable turnaround in his condition. Following consultations with his medical team and a successful afternoon spent at a local practice track in Belgium, where he tested his strength and fitness on the bike, Renaux’s improvement has exceeded expectations.

This afternoon, the Frenchman arrived in Agueda, Portugal, where he underwent a comprehensive assessment with the FIM doctors. They have declared him fit to race in round seven of the FIM Motocross World Championship this weekend.

Maxime Renaux

Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP rider

“I’m happy to be fit and ready to ride here in Portugal. I will try to make the most of it this weekend because, regardless of the results, being here in the first place is a massive bonus. It’s a new chance, something we didn’t expect initially, but I’m here, I have the green light, and I will try to make the most of it.”

ÁGUEDA (Portugal) 2 May 2025 – The 2025 FIM Motocross World Championship lines up for round seven on the most western stop in Europe, the MXGP of Portugal, as the Crossodromo Internacional de Águeda plays host to its 26th Motocross Grand Prix event in the 40th anniversary year of its very first in 1985!

Last year’s event was a very muddy affair that saw a dominant double win for Liam Everts in MX2, with Pauls Jonass scoring second in both MXGP races to claim his first overall victory in the class!  MXGP race winners from last year were Tim Gajser and Jeffrey Herlings, and Tim currently leads the standings by 27 points over Romain Febvre, who has finished second at each of the last two Águeda GPs.  He will look to close in on Gajser who sustained a shoulder injury in Switzerland and has made a late announcemxent that he will not be riding in Portugal.

Lucas Coenen, the dominant victor in Switzerland to become the youngest MXGP winner since the class’ inception, will be keen to step up to the challenge of trying to chase down the points lead as well!

The leading four in MX2 are separated by just 30 points, and a double victory at the last round saw Simon Laengenfelder close to within just three of series leader and defending Champion Kay de Wolf, while Andrea Adamo and Everts are still very much in striking distance.

To ensure Portuguese fans won’t miss a moment of the Live Action, Sport TV Portugal will broadcast the four races live on Sunday (MXGP & MX2).

Below you can find the full list of TV channels that will air LIVE and delayed action of the MXGP of Portugal, as well as the 26-minute Behind The Gate magazine show featuring the best moments from the races, exclusive interviews and more.  All of this footage will be available on MXGP-TV.com and via our TV magazine partners following the Grand Prix.

Honda HRC are down to three riders at the MXGP of Portugal, as five-time world champion and current red-plate holder Tim Gajser will not make the trip to Agueda. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of the rider and all the medical personnel helping the Slovenian since leaving Switzerland, the injury hasn’t improved enough to cope with the rigours of world motocross racing.

After a tough Monday of racing in Switzerland – which followed an excellent Saturday where Ruben Fernandez and Gajser went one-two in qualification – there were question marks surrounding the status of the Gajser, after a nasty crash involving a solid man-made mound of dirt that was meant to be marking the track boundary but was instead inside the markers. And after some excellent treatment once he left the on-site facility, the Slovenian was hoping that he would be fit enough to attempt to battle the demands of MXGP motocross and continue his fight for title number six. Sitting 27 points clear of second place, the #243 knew he would have his work cut out to ready to make the start-line, but an intense week of physiotherapy saw his condition reach a level where there was optimism that he would be able to jump on a plane for round seven. Instead, he, along with his qualified medical team decided that sitting it out was the necessary call and now there will be further tests to determine the best course of action. It is a massive disappointment for Gajser as before the crash, he was 49 points ahead of his rivals, having won three of the first six rounds, and been on the podium for all of them.
