Paige Turner here, and you are not going to believe the voltage coming out of Finland right now! 🏁⚡️ While everyone else is sleeping on the European Supercross scene, I've been digging into a story that is about to shake up the iconic French SX Tour in a massive way.

Finnish star Miro Varjonen, at just 20 years old, isn't just hopping on a plane to try his luck in France. He's making a full-blown statement. He's parking the combustion engine and going all-in with the Stark Varg electric bike for his international supercross assault. You heard that right—this isn't a one-off test session; it's a dedicated campaign across select rounds of the French SX Tour, and it's a historic first for Finnish motorsport .

And let's talk preparation, because you know I love the details others miss. Miro didn't just unbox the bike and show up. He spent two intense weeks sweating it out at Stark Future's private playground—the Polea Camp in Barcelona. We're talking top-secret, factory-level testing on a track designed specifically to make that electric torque sing on supercross rhythms . His own words sum it up perfectly: "The Stark Varg's instant torque and controllability feel like they were made specifically for supercross."

So, when are we going to see that silent-but-deadly red machine ripping through the French whoops? Mark your calendars for July 11th, because that's when the gates drop at Saint-Thibéry for the French SX Tour opener . This is one of Europe's most stacked and prestigious series—the perfect proving ground to see if electric power can silence the roar of traditional 450s.

But that's not all on Varjonen's dance card. He's a busy man in 2026. He already hit the indoor circuits earlier this year, mixing it up with the Stark team at Herning in Denmark , and he'll be back on home soil to defend Finnish pride at the Tampere Supercross later this season.

The bottom line? The future is now. With the support of Biketeam and his coach Leevi Takatalo, Varjonen is betting big on electric . I've got my notebook ready and my eyes locked on France. Will the instant torque be an unfair advantage, or will the old guard show these new batteries how it's done?

I'll be the first to bring you that story.

Until the gate drops… stay charged and keep it pinned! 🏁
