The FIM EnduroGP World Championship stopped in Finland for the third round of the 2026 season, held from May 22 to 24 in Vierumäki, inside the stunning Salpausselkä UNESCO Global Geopark. It was one of the most distinctive rounds on the world championship calendar.
The Finnish terrain once again proved to be extremely demanding, with a mix of sand, rocks, and long forest sections full of roots, making the race both tough and highly selective. Riders faced a 59-kilometre course featuring three clearly defined special tests: a highly technical and natural Extreme Test, a fast and tricky Enduro Test, and a quick, dusty Cross Test on hard-packed ground.
A perfect weekend for Triumph rider Morgan Lesiardo: on the opening day he fought hard and secured a strong second place in the E1 class thanks to excellent times recorded in the Enduro Test and Extreme Test. In the EnduroGP class, the Triumph Italia Racing rider entered the Top Ten with an eighth-place finish.
On the following race day, Morgan Lesiardo delivered another outstanding performance, once again finishing second and improving his EnduroGP result, where he placed sixth overall.
Thanks to the two second places achieved in Vierumäki, Morgan Lesiardo closes the third GP, marking the halfway point of the 2026 season, moving up from third to second in the provisional E1 standings.
In the Junior 1 class, Luca Colorio finished seventh on the opening day, while on Sunday he fought until the very last special test for a place on the podium, ultimately having to settle for fourth in the Day 2 results.
The World Championship now moves to Portugal for the fourth and fifth rounds of the season, both scheduled in Fafe in June.
