The BTS Racing team achieved a podium finish with Oriol Oliver in the first round of the Dutch Masters of Motocross in Harfsen. Oriol completed two consistent motos and secured third place in the overall standings.

With a fourth-fastest time in his group during qualifying, Oliver ensured a good starting position for both motos. In both the first and second motos, Oliver had a decent start. In the first moto, he emerged from the first lap in seventh place and worked his way forward throughout the race. Mid-race, he moved into fourth place and held onto it until the finish.

In the second moto, he recovered from ninth place to finish in fourth. This earned him a solid podium finish, and he ended the day in third overall.

It was not Wesly Dieudonne’s day in Harfsen. After qualifying tenth in his group, he was unable to score points in the motos, making it a race to quickly forget.

Oriol Oliver of BTS Racing faced a tough third round of the MX2 World Championship at the French Grand Prix in St. Jean d’Angely. Oliver struggled to find his rhythm on the tricky track, ultimately finishing in twelfth place in the day’s standings.

The third round of the World Championship was held at the legendary St. Jean d’Angely circuit in France. The track was well-prepared, with only a few minor adjustments. However, rainfall created slippery and challenging conditions. Oliver had difficulty finding a good flow on the track. Despite this, he pushed hard and managed to set the sixteenth-fastest time in Saturday’s qualifying and finished the qualification heat in thirteenth.

Oliver and the team did everything they could to improve their feeling on the track, but things didn’t go smoothly during Sunday’s races either. Nevertheless, Oliver persevered and secured a twelfth and thirteenth-place finish in the heats.

In the day’s overall standings, Oliver finished in twelfth place and is now in thirteenth in the overall championship standings.

Next Sunday, BTS Racing will line up for the first round of the Dutch Masters of Motocross in Harfsen, and the following weekend, the next Grand Prix will take place in Riola Sardo, Sardinia.

Jens Walvoort of BTS Racing sustained two broken neck vertebrae during a training session in the week leading up to the Spanish Grand Prix.

Walvoort tried to race in Spain but the pain was too intense, causing him to decide not to participate further after the free practice session.

This week, Walvoort underwent additional tests, which revealed that he has fractured the C6 and C7 neck vertebrae.

Due to this injury, Walvoort will be out of action for the time being!

Oriol Oliver from BTS Racing secured a top ten finish in his home Grand Prix in Spain. Oliver finished ninth in the second race after losing his chances for a top ten result in the first race due to a crash, which left him in fourteenth place.

The weekend started with a setback for the team. Jens Walvoort crashed the week before the race and sustained a muscle tear in his leg, along with a painful shoulder and back. Walvoort attempted to ride in practice, but the pain was too severe, and he decided not to participate further in the weekend’s events.

Oliver showed a good improvement on Saturday. After qualifying twelfth in the time training, he had a strong showing in the qualification heat and finished in a solid seventh place.

A good start in the first race allowed him to come out of the first lap in seventh place. In the early stages, he managed to hold his position well, but after a few laps, he fell in the tricky conditions and dropped back to fifteenth. Oliver recovered well and fought his way back to thirteenth. Unfortunately, he had to give up this position in the final stages and finished fourteenth.

In the second race, Oliver made a strong comeback. His start wasn’t great, so he had to work his way forward from outside the top ten. After three laps, he entered the top ten and then pushed through to eighth place in the following laps. In the final stages, he lost that position but finished a respectable ninth.

In the overall standings for the day, Oliver placed eleventh, and in the championship standings, he is now in fourteenth place. The championship continues next weekend in St. Jean d’Angely, France.

BTS Racing has secured its first top-ten finish of the 2025 season. During the first race of the MX2 World Championship in Cordoba, Argentina, Oriol Oliver finished ninth in the second moto. Jens Walvoort also scored points with an 18th place finish in the second moto.

The Cordoba circuit is new to the World Championship calendar. The organizers put a lot of effort into building the track and were successful in doing so. The enthusiasm of the crowd was also high, as thousands of spectators lined the circuit to watch the season’s opening race.

The weekend began positively for the team on Saturday, with Oliver qualifying in ninth place and Walvoort just one position behind in tenth. Both riders earned their first points of the season.

On Sunday morning, rain in Cordoba turned the track into a muddy circuit. Both riders faced setbacks in the first moto, as both Oliver and Walvoort experienced mechanical issues that forced them to retire from the race early.

However, both riders made a strong comeback in the second moto. Oliver made a great start and was in second place early on. Unfortunately, a crash caused him to lose several positions. Oliver recovered well and fought for eighth place, eventually finishing in ninth. Walvoort had a poor start but was consistently in the points throughout the race. He gained positions in the middle of the race and finished in 17th.

In the overall standings, Oliver finished 15th for the day, while Walvoort occupies 20th place after the first race. The championship will continue in two weeks in Cozar, Spain.
