FIM EnduroGP World Championship
The FIM EnduroGP World Championship is the more ‘traditional’ of Enduro disciplines featuring a number of tests across the race weekends. The enduro test, motocross test, and extreme tests feature in all race events, with a crowd-pleasing super test taking place, usually on the Friday night. The Enduro series dates back to 1968, and today has three categories – Enduro1 (up-to 250cc 2-stroke and 4-stroke), Enduro2 (255cc – 450cc 4-stroke) and Enduro3 (255cc 2-stroke and 450cc 4-stroke) as well as the overall EnduroGP standings, which is awarded to the highest point scorer of all three categories. Triumph’s rider Mikael Persson, who stays with the squad for a second season, has previously battled for Championship victories, and brings a wealth of experience to the Triumph Factory Racing team. In 2026 Persson will be joined by German racer Jeremy Sydow, who is hungry for results in the series, and both racers will be mentored by Jamie McCanney. The team will contest the E1 & EnduroGP class for 2026.
Alongside the factory squad, several Triumph teams will also contest the 2026 EnduroGP season. Triumph Italia Racing returns with Morgan Lesiardo in the Enduro1 class aboard the TF 250-E, after the Italian secured Triumph’s first Enduro1 victory at the 2025 GP of Italy, as well as claiming the overall win at the 6DAYS® with Team Italy. The team will also field junior riders Luca Colorio, Francisco Leite, and Roland Liszka. Johansson MPE continues its programme with Samuli Puhakainen, Arvid Modin and Will Dennett, who impressed on his EnduroGP debut last season by claiming a Junior1 podium at the season finale and will now contest his first full Junior campaign.
