    Profil anzeigen
    What a performance! GASGAS Factory Racing’s Jaime Busto has secured second place overall in the 2024 FIM X-Trial World Championship following a third-place result at round seven in Spain. With podium finishes in all but one round this season, Busto delivered an impressive ride in front of a passionate home crowd during the season finale. Teammate Sondre Haga also made his second X-Trial appearance of the year, finishing eighth aboard his TXE GP. Jaime wraps up 2024 championship as runner-up Third-place result in Spain for the GASGAS star 2025 series kicks off in five weeks’ time Fueled by his win in Estonia, Busto got off to a strong start by placing second in the evening's first round of action in Spain. Confidently taking on five sections of tricky, man-made obstacles, Jaime dropped just seven marks. Fired up by the passionate home crowd in Pamplona’s Navarra Arena, Jaime headed into round two with his eyes on the prize. Round two went even better for the Spaniard. Demonstrating his skill and control on his TXT GP 300, Jaime carefully picked his lines to clean every section, securing his spot in the final after an impressive performance. The final round proved to be a nail-biter. All three qualified riders initially tied with fives in the opening section and cleans in the second, setting the stage for an intense showdown. Despite giving his all on the remaining sections, Busto made a couple of small errors which ultimately cost him the top spot. Completing the round on 20 marks saw Jaime place third place on the night. The result secured him his sixth podium of the season, and second overall in the championship standings. Marking his second X-Trial appearance of the 2024 series, Sondre Haga had a tough evening in Pamplona. In a super-technical round one, costly mistakes on three of the five sections left the TXE GP rider in seventh place. Despite cleaning three sections in round two, it wasn’t enough to move up the leaderboard and Haga finished eighth overall. The 2025 FIM X-Trial World Championship gets underway in just over one month’s time in Madrid on December 21. Jaime Busto: “Overall, I’m really happy with my ride! I knew going into tonight that the first and second lap were super important to make sure I got into the final to secure second in the championship. I started the night strong but unfortunately relaxed a bit too much in the final and made too many mistakes. I finished on the podium again, though, and got second in the championship which I’m super happy about. It’s been a great season full of strong results, and I can’t wait to carry this momentum into the new season in December!” Sondre Haga: “It was pretty close on the first lap, but as always with X-Trial, small mistakes can cost so many positions. It was great to ride this championship again and I really enjoyed it, so I think with some more work I’ll be getting better results next season.” Albert Cabestany – GASGAS Factory Racing Trial Team Manager: “We achieved our goal for tonight so we’re really happy! It’s great that Jaime has secured the runner-up position in the final standings, he’s done an amazing job all season and tonight too. He managed the pressure really well and had two great laps to get into the final. Sondre rose to the occasion of riding the electric bike indoors and proved that we have a competitive bike. We’re already looking forward to the next season!” Results – 2024 X-Trial World Championship, Round 7 1. Toni Bou (Montesa) 8 final 2. Benoit Bincaz (Sherco) 17 final 3.

    Red Bull GASGAS Tech3 pulled the curtain down for 2024 with a fast-paced and action-packed performance by Pedro Acosta to claim 10th position at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. The Spaniard grabbed six points to end his rookie season with 6th in the championship and a total of nine podiums between Grands Prix and Sprints. Teammate Augusto Fernandez was 19th for round twenty. In Moto3™ Daniel Holgado ended the year with the silver medal after a rampaging quest to seal P2 in Catalunya. Acosta caps an educational and attention-grabbing debut MotoGP term with a top ten at the Solidarity Grand Prix of Barcelona Fernandez battles for the most effective grip during the 24-laps and finishes his second year in the premier class with 19th and 20th in the standings Moto3™ glory for Daniel Holgado thanks to a determined charge to 2nd through the 18 laps on Sunday. Jacob Roulstone matches a personal best result with 8th and ranks 15th in his first season in Grand Prix racing A special late autumn light shone down on the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya for the finale of 2024 MotoGP and the Solidarity Grand Prix of Barcelona: the twentieth round of the world championship campaign. Pedro Acosta and Augusto Fernandez faced the last 24-laps of a long term by starting from 6th and 21st positions on the grid and in full knowledge that tire-wear and preservation would be critical around the slippery 4.6km layout. Acosta, who was unlucky to have podium contention in the Sprint on Saturday ended by contact from another rider, swept into the top six from the outset. Pedro drilled the GASGAS RC16 but then suffered with a brake issue in the closing stages and soldiered on to 10th. He has managed points in 14 from 20 races. 2024 was the best season for GASGAS red in the series. Fernandez tried a set-up adjustment for the race and his last outing with the team in the pursuit of more adhesion and a better feeling. Augusto reached a highest position of 14th before then managing his speed to take 19th. He ended 2024 with seven points-scoring outings and 20th in the list. Pedro Acosta, 10th: “I had to manage the situation with my brakes and it made the race more difficult. It was a 50-50 season. Many mistakes but also many good moments where we were fighting for victories and we improved a lot. We also understood more about MotoGP and how it works. We had some super-nice races so we have to be happy with 2024.” Augusto Fernandez, 19th: “A hard day. We expected a bit better after warm-up because we’d worked a lot to turn things around and I had a good start but when it came time to make the pace I just didn’t have it. A strange feeling all race with the lack of grip. I’m looking forward now to what will come with my future.” Nicolas Goyon, GASGAS Factory Racing Tech3 Team Manager : “It’s been an unbelievable season with Pedro. His rookie year has been amazing and we finished with five podiums and four Sprint podiums. A season full of emotion and Pedro showed us his fantastic speed and how he is a great champion. We wish him all the best and we feel we achieved our targets with him and helped him to become a fast MotoGP rider. A frustrating day for Augusto. He showed some speed at one point but could not convert this into a good position. It’s been a difficult championship for him but he always fought to regain the confidence and we wish him all the best. Thanks to the entire Red Bull GASGAS team and now we’ll look to the last test of 2024.” Results MotoGP Solidarity Grand Prix of Barcelona 1. Francesco Bagnaia (ITA) Ducati 40:24.740 2.

Augusto Fernandez (ESP) Red Bull GASGAS Tech3, 27 Moto3 The closing 18-laps of Moto3 2024 thrust Daniel Holgado into the spotlight and the last charge to be vice champion. The Spaniard had been on the pace through Friday and Saturday in Barcelona and qualified on the second row for the showdown. Jacob Roulstone was 9th fastest and with hopes of penetrating the leading posse on his farewell bid to a decent rookie season. Holgado scurried to the front in the first two laps and then remained poised for the podium in the 11-rider group. On the final lap he pushed the limits to try and pass world champion David Alonso but took a worthy P2 by just 0.1 of a second to guarantee the points and the status of the second best Moto3 racer of the year. Roulstone was part of the same rushing pack and his 8th place at the flag equaled a season-best for the rookie. The Australian rubber-stamped 15th in the championship list. Daniel Holgado, 2nd : “I’m really happy with my last race in Moto3. I did my very best today and it was a very fast race. I tried everything I had on the last lap to overtake for the lead but it was impossible. Happy for my year! I’m second in the championship. 1st would have been better but I did my best. Thanks to Red Bull GASGAS Tech3, they are an amazing team.” Jacob Roulstone, 8th : “Quite happy to finish the season on a high like this. To be 8th after some struggles is great and I think the team are happy. I tried to make positions as quick as I could today and pleased that Dani is second in the championship and how I could ride. I got used to the late, aggressive moves into Turn 1. Overall, an up and down season and I proud how I was able to come back and overcome the difficulties I was having. A big thanks to the team and those that helped me and support me. I think we have a lot of potential for some big goals next year.” Results Moto3 Solidarity Grand Prix of Barcelona 1.
