The 2026 Motul ACU British Motocross Championship has begun at Hawkstone Park, and Qualifying is done and dusted.
In MX1 Conrad Mewse came away with pole ahead of Adam Sterry and Ben Watson with less than a second seperating the three of them
Over in MX2, Charlie Heyman was super fast in Group 1, while Joe Brookes notched up a similarly fast time to top Group 2. The top 18 from each group make the main races, while the rest go to the LCQ, where the top four riders will qualify.
In the 125’s, it was Drew Stock who drew first blood in a group that saw the fastest 32 qualify through to the Main races, and the rest had to race in the LCQ.
