Defending champions Toni Bou (Montesa) and Berta Abellan (Scorpa) dominated the premier TrialGP and TrialGP Women classes on day two of the TrialGP of Italy – round three of the 2026 Hertz FIM Trial World Championship – at Camerino as Harry Turner (Sherco) swept the board in Trial2, Fabio Mazzola tightened his grip on Trial3 Junior and consistency paid off for Queralt Fontdevila (Beta) in Trial2 Women.
  • Defending champions Toni Bou and Berta Abellan on top again in TrialGP and TrialGP Women
  • Harry Turner takes career-first Trial2 win with a dynamite double at Camerino
  • Fabio Mazzola and Queralt Fontdevila extend their Trial3 Junior and Trial2 Women leads

On another hot day in the central-eastern region of Italy, brilliant Bou stretched his win-streak to twelve consecutive race victories as he found grip that eluded his rivals on the near vertical climbs over loose shale that offered similar traction to riding on marbles, allowing the thirty-nine-year-old Spaniard to extend his lead at the top of the standings.

Neck-and-neck with his compatriot Jamie Busto (Beta) through the opening five sections of race one, the decisive moment came on section six where Bou took a dab and Busto incurred a maximum. With vital breathing room, Bou completed the race adding just a maximum on the technical climb at the end of section ten as Busto hung on for second on fifteen.

Mounted on the sole electric motorcycle in the class, Spain’s Miquel Gelabert (Honda) matched his third-placed finish in Saturday’s opening race on nineteen with British rider Jack Peace (Sherco) recovering from a disappointing performance yesterday to take fourth on twenty-five, six clear of home hero Matteo Grattarola (Beta).

After topping Super Pole to guarantee a start at the back of the field, Bou watched Busto sail up the super-steep climb and double step of the opening section for clean before needing a single dab – as did Marcelli and Grattarola – but the scores were even after section two where Busto lost a mark.

Bou collected a maximum on section four along with Busto and Grattarola, but after France’s Hugo Dufrese (Beta) had posted the hazard’s lowest race-two score of two, Marcelli made it to the end with a three to take a slim lead into the Super Final, despite losing a single mark to Bou’s clean on section five.

Grattarola ended the Final in third on seven with Harry Hemingway (Beta) on nine and Dufrese and Gelabert on ten, but a maximum on section seven dropped Busto out of contention and fives in the first three sections of the Super Final saw the twenty-eight-year-old slip to seventh at the end on a total of twenty-seven.

A clean to Marcelli’s dab on section eight – where a double step near the end provided the main test – put Bou back on level terms and, as his rivals struggled in the remaining four sections, the nineteen-time champion added just a further two on section seven to cruise clear with a total of eight.

It’s been a super weekend for us with a lot of points for the championship,” said Bou. “I was feeling very good in both races and had a little mistake in race two, but after that I was fighting until the end.

A pair of maximums in the concluding two sections put Marcelli’s score up to nineteen, but he was still three clear of Dufrese who impressed in a fighting third with Grattarola one mark adrift in fourth as Peace’s cool clean on the final section earned him fifth on twenty-five, one ahead of Gelabert.

After sweeping both races yesterday, Abellan gifted her main title rival and home rider Andrea Sofia Rabino (Beta) an early advantage in race one when she needed a dab on the relatively straightforward opening section, but the Spaniard did not lose another mark until a single on section eight made things all-square between the two pace-setters.

Section nine proved to be pivotal with Abellan taking a three to Rabino’s five and the defending champion needed just a final dab on section twelve to finish on six and run out winner by three marks as Denisa Pechackova from the Czech Republic took third on fourteen, four clear of Britain’s Kaytlyn Adshead and five ahead of Italian Alessia Bacchetta.

Abellan and Rabino then led the field in race two and were tied on one apiece heading into section eight where the Italian lost ground with a dab. After scoring a two on the following hazard where Rabino needed three, Abellan then put the seal on another victory with a single mark in the final section taking her total to four.

I am very happy with how this weekend has worked out,” said Abellan. “It wasn’t easy because Rabino was riding so well, but we will keep focused and continue to work hard.

Rabino was a clear second on eight, although she was only four ahead of her compatriot Bacchetta who in turn was just one clear of Britain’s Alice Minta (Beta) with Pechackova rounding out the top five on twenty.

The fight for dominance in Trial2 has raged since the opening round in Japan and twenty-year-old Turner burst into title contention with a pair of impressive race victories that saw him become the sixth different race winner this season.

Holding his nerve in a tense opening race, Turner lost only four marks to take the win by one from championship leader Alex Canales (Montesa) from Spain with France’s Benoit Bincaz (Electric Motion) – who has won three of the eight races he has contested this year – third on nine, two ahead of a tie for fourth that was won by Britain’s George Hemingway (Beta) from his compatriot Jack Dance.

With momentum behind him, Turner secured a career-first overall victory at this level when he signed off with a miserly total of three marks lost to lead home race two by eight chased by Hemingway. Bincaz lost twelve to claim another third position before Spain’s Arnau Farré (Sherco) – who was sixth in race one – took fourth on a tie-break with former champion Billy Green (Scorpa) on thirteen.

It felt amazing today,” said Turner. “It’s not only my first-ever win in Trial2, it’s my first-ever podium so I’m very, very happy.

Despite ending race two in a lowly eleventh on twenty-two, Canales retains the championship lead, but his title rivals – led by Farré, Hemingway and Turner – have closed.

Leader of the Trial3 Junior class after the opening day of competition in Andorra before Britain’s Harison Skelton (Scorpa) moved to the top on day two, Mazzola was the star of the class yesterday when he regained the points advantage with a double win and the Italian made full use of home advantage today with one-two race finishes to extend the gap at the top of the table.

I am very happy to take another win in front of my home fans,” said Mazzola. “It is incredible for me.

Skelton finished the opening race just one adrift in second and six clear of third-placed Spaniard Angel Llopis Tarrega (Sherco) to limit the damage, but he lost further ground with fourth in race two behind Italian Edio Poncia (Beta) as Mazzola finished second to Spain’s Oriol Garcia Campano (Sherco) by a single mark.

Running two-two yesterday to assume an early series lead, Spain’s Queralt Fontdevila (Beta) replicated these finishes today as her consistency earned her an increased advantage at the top of the table.

“Today has been very good for me,” said Fontdevila. “I made a few mistakes, but I was able to recover.

Matilda Arbon (Sherco) repeated her victory in Saturday’s opening race with Abril Montserrat Junque (Beta) from Spain slotting into third, but a sixth in race two proved to be expensive for the British rider as Justyna Lonycz from the Czech Republic claimed her first victory of the season with Montserrat Junque third.
