FIM W2RC: Van Beveren makes it 15
Adrien Van Beveren (Monster Energy Honda), the fastest W2RC entrant in today's Rally GP stage, picked up his 15th W2RC win in Mengoub/Bouârfa. The Frenchman, who already held the record for the most stage victories, raised the bar a bit more in Morocco. No-one will be able to strip VBA of this record this season, as he has three more successes to his name than Ross Branch (Hero MotoSports) and there are only two stages left.
FIA W2RC: Baciuška makes history
Game, set and match for Rokas Baciuška (Can-Am Factory) in Challenger! There remain 40 points at stake this season (30 for winning the Rallye du Maroc outright and 10 for each stage win left), but the Lithuanian has a 42-point margin over Nicolás Cavigliasso (BBR). Once the FIA publishes the definitive results, Baciuška will be anointed champion! Having claimed the SSV titles in 2022 and 2023, he will become the first W2RC entrant to prevail in two different classes. Six FIA titles are still up for grabs: Ultimate and SSV drivers, Ultimate, Challenger and SSV co-drivers, and manufacturers. Stay tuned…
