At KTM, however, this cohesion is strong, thanks to a shared goal of keeping their bikes on top. Riders and support staff alike push for excellence, acknowledging that everyone brings their unique role to the race.
Scott Haygate had a standout season, pushing through the challenges of the Open class to claim an impressive second-place finish. Matthew Wilson also showcased his grit, claiming second in the OR3 class. Kerim Fitz-Gerald, despite early setbacks due to a wrist injury, managed to secure second in the Senior class, exemplifying the resilience that KTM riders embody. Though Bradley Cox’s season was marred by injuries, he remains undeterred, prepared to return stronger in 2025.
The episode also explores the personal side of racing. Riders reflect on the support they receive from family and mentors, especially Uncle Kev, whose steady guidance has been instrumental. Family time, often sacrificed for the sport, becomes even more cherished, creating bonds that fuel their drive to win.
As the season closes, KTM looks toward 2025 with renewed determination. For these athletes, racing isn’t just about podiums; it’s about heart, grit, and the unbreakable support that keeps them pushing forward.
