24MX Tour Round 3: Qualifying Day at Romagné

Romagné, France – April 25, 2026: The gates are loaded and the anticipation is sky high! Day one of the third round of the 2026 24MX Tour kicked off under perfect sunny skies at the technical Romagné circuit in Brittany, and let me tell you — the energy was already electric.

While the big main motos were saved for Sunday, Saturday delivered fast qualifying sessions and solid track time for the support classes. The Espoirs and Juniors riders were out early, putting in laps on a track packed with elevation changes and tricky sections that separate the committed from the rest.

In MX1 Elite, the guest superstar Jeffrey Herlings (Honda HRC Petronas) wasted zero time. The five-time World Champion grabbed pole position with the quickest qualifying time. Championship leader Thibault Benistant was right there in second, with Kevin Horgmo third. The times at the sharp end were tight — you could feel the battle brewing for Sunday.

Over in MX2, Francisco Garcia and Jake Cannon were laying down serious speed, but all eyes were glued to local favorite Mathys Boisramé. The reigning French MX2 champion looked sharp and motivated, clearly feeding off the home crowd energy.
