Josep Garcia, the current EnduroGP World Champion, will race head to head against Billy Bolt, the reigning SuperEnduro World Champion, at Round 1 in Gliwice, Poland on 13 December.
Garcia will also face Mani Lettenbichler, the Hard Enduro World Champion, and Jonny Walker, the EnduroCross champion. Seeing three world champions from different enduro disciplines on the same track is something truly rare in modern racing.
Garcia’s SuperEnduro debut
This race will mark Josep Garcia’s first ever SuperEnduro appearance, and for now, it is his only scheduled round in the 2026 season. Known for his explosive starts and speed in EnduroGP SuperTests, expectations are high for a strong debut in the indoor arena.
A stacked rider list
The opening round will also feature the Brightmore brothers, proven race winner Dominik Olszowy and Sweden’s Eddie Karlsson. With this lineup, Gliwice is set to deliver one of the most competitive SuperEnduro races in years.
Record number of entries
According to series promoter Sport UP Agency, nearly 100 riders are already registered across Prestige, Junior, Youth and FIM Europe classes. This is the highest early entry count in SuperEnduro history. North American rider Cooper Abbott is also expected to join the grid.
Strong words from the promoter
Tomasz Gagat, CEO of Sport UP Agency, said that bringing three reigning world champions together for the opening round is something SuperEnduro has never seen before and confirms the rapid global growth of the series.
Round 1 takes place in Gliwice, Poland, about an hour from Krakow, on 13 December. Fans can watch the race live on FIM-MOTO.TV or follow the season at the arenas across Europe.
