JAIME BUSTO FINISHES AS RUNNER-UP IN 2024 X-TRIAL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
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.

6th in the championship as Acosta and GASGAS sign-off 2024 MotoGP™ in Barcelona
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.

TROY LEE DESIGNS/RED BULL/GASGAS FACTORY RACING'S PIERCE BROWN WINS LAS VEGAS SMX FINAL
Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/GASGAS Factory Racing and Pierce Brown saved their best for the last round at the SuperMotocross World Championship (SMX) Final in Las Vegas, as PB delivered a breakout victory to earn third position in the 250SMX standings overall. PB breaks through for first-career 250SMX victory! Team livery inspired by Venom: The Last Dance film this weekend Justin Barcia completes 450SMX season ninth overall After qualifying in seventh position this afternoon at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Brown was immediately in contention during the night show after convincingly charging to second place in 250SMX Moto 1 onboard his GASGAS MC 250F Factory Edition. Pierce fought his way through from P5 to the lead in the second moto of the evening and once he got there on Lap 7, took control of the race for a commanding 6.891s win. His combined 2-1 scorecard sealed him the overall, also elevating him to P3 in the 250SMX World Championship. Pierce Brown: "Wow, what a night! All I can say is that I'm speechless. First career win is just surreal, I'm so stoked to do it for the team and here in Las Vegas this weekend to finish off the season together." 250SMX teammate Ryder DiFrancesco impressed in qualifying third on combined times, before pushing forward to P7 in the first outing. Moto 2 saw him take the checkered flag in 16th, which placed him 11th overall for the SMX Final and he was also credited P11 in the series. Ryder DiFrancesco: "This was a good weekend for me. Qualifying was good and so was the first moto, but it was just the last moto that wasn't the way we wanted to end it. This year was a good building year, so I am looking forward to seeing what we can do next season!" Las Vegas was another step in the right direction for Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/GASGAS Factory Racing 450SMX entry Justin Barcia, equipped with the GASGAS MC 450F Factory Edition and making his second SMX start of the post-season. Bam Bam proved consistent on the high-speed, hybrid-type track, recording a ninth-place result in the first race and then going one better for P8 in Moto 2 to round out the year. Barcia's results at the finale also saw him climb to ninth in the championship. Justin Barcia: "Vegas, not where we wanted to be, but I'm glad we were better than the week before. It was a shame I had that crash in Charlotte, because it was a challenging season, and I appreciate my whole crew for putting in 100% behind me and am super-proud of this team. It was really cool to see Pierce get the win tonight also! I'm excited for a healthy off-season and will see everybody at Anaheim." Results 450SMX Class – SMX Final 1. Jett Lawrence (AUS), Honda 2.

Justin Barcia: "Texas Motor Speedway was good, always good to be back at the races with the fans! It was a challenging day for me, just because I'm far from being my best self right now with where my body is at. I'm just glad to be here, able to ride, and doing my best. First moto, I rode as hard as I could, and then in the second moto, I had used up a lot of my energy, so nothing to write home about! I'm looking forward to Las Vegas and trying to get that little bit better for next weekend." The 250SMX round saw Brown quickest of all in Friday Practice, before he qualified in ninth position. Equipped with the GASGAS MC 250F Factory Edition, PB went down at the beginning of both motos, but pushed on for impressive 9-5 results. That saw him salvage P7 overall, which has him sitting seventh in points with only the SMX Final remaining. Pierce Brown: "It was a better day for me. I struggled to keep it on two wheels in the first turn – I fell in both starts – but my jumps off the gate were getting better. I came from last to ninth in the first moto and then last to fifth in Moto 2, so that was good. I'm happy with my fitness right now and I'm excited to see what we can do in Vegas for the Final!" Texas was much the same for teammate Ryder D, the Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/GASGAS Factory Racing rider affected by troubles in Moto 1 when he went down twice, eventually reaching the checkered flag in P17. The final outing was an improvement with an 11th-place finish, resulting in 13th for the weekend. DiFrancesco is ranked 12th in the 250SMX title race with one round left to run. Ryder DiFrancesco: "Today was okay. My qualifying sessions were better and then I ended up going down twice in the first one, then in the second one, I moved forward to ninth, but finished 11th. I'm excited to end the season on a good note in Vegas!" Next Race: September 21 – Las Vegas, Nevada (SMX Final) Results 450SMX Class – SMX Playoff 2 1. Hunter Lawrence (AUS), Honda 2.
