Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Josep Garcia has once again asserted his dominance at the 6DAYS FIM Enduro of Nations, claiming a record-breaking fifth consecutive overall individual victory. Competing for Team Spain aboard his KTM 250 EXC-F, the reigning EnduroGP World Champion delivered another masterclass performance over six demanding days at the 6DAYS Italia.
Kicking off the week in commanding style, Garcia topped the individual timesheets on day one, setting the pace through the rain-hit Italian terrain. The Spaniard built momentum fast, going on to win days two and three to establish an early advantage in the overall standings. Despite a finger injury sustained during day four, Garcia fought through the pain to remain competitive, narrowly conceding the day win to rival Andrea Verona.
Thursday saw the return of the rain in Bergamo, making for extremely demanding conditions and as a result, the action was reduced to just four tests. Bouncing back strong, Garcia delivered another winning ride on day five, extending his lead ahead of Friday's traditional final motocross test.
With a 40-second buffer going into the final race, Josep just had to stay out of trouble to secure the event victory. A tough start saw the Spaniard complete the first lap just inside the top 10. From there, Josep increased his pace to move up through the field and ultimately finish sixth at the checkered flag to secure the overall individual 6DAYS win.
Josep Garcia: “The 2025 6DAYS is over. It was a really good event for me; I won four out of the six days. I had a problem on day four when I hit my finger in one of the chicanes and hurt it quite badly, but thankfully, I was able to carry on and complete the day. It’s a dream come true to win my fifth consecutive overall, I just need a World Trophy win now, and you can be sure Team Spain will be back next year to fight for that. Now, I have some time to relax and celebrate, but then the focus returns to EnduroGP and the fight for the title.”
Home nation Italy took the honors in the World Trophy category, with Sweden finishing as runners-up, helped in part by KTM 350 EXC-F-mounted Max Ahlin. Team USA narrowly missed out on the podium in fourth, with strong performances from KTM riders Jonathan Girroir and Dante Oliveira contributing to the result.
In the Women’s World Trophy, KTM-mounted Brandy Richards took the individual win on her way to leading Team United States to victory – the third consecutive trophy win for the USA.
The Manufacturer’s Team Award went to Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Josep Garcia, Jonathan Girroir, and Dante Oliveira, with the second KTM team of Max Ahlin, Angus Riordan, and Grant Davis securing third with a strong performance on the final day.
The 2026 6DAYS FIM Enduro of Nations will be held in Portugal from 12-17 October.
