2026 X-Trial WM Barcelona (Spain) - Palau Sant Jordi - Highlights

The X-Trial World Champion leaves no chance for his rivals at the Palau Sant Jordi, while Busto beats Marcelli by a single point in the battle for second place

Toni Bou (Repsol Honda Trial Team) once again delivered a commanding performance at the X-Trial of Barcelona, claiming his 19th victory at the event. He had already set the pace by topping Q1 and being the fastest rider in the Superpole. Jaime Busto (GasGas) and Gabriel Marcelli (Repsol Honda Trial Team) joined the World Champion on the podium, finishing second and third respectively after battling for second place until the final section. The gap between them at the finish was just one point.

Bou began the Final with a clean in the opening section, while Busto, Marcelli and Harry Hemingway (Beta), the fastest rider in Q2, all picked up five penalty points. The World Champion made the decisive difference in the fourth section, where his rivals once again scored five points, while Bou completed it with just a single penalty. From that moment on, the fight for victory was effectively settled, as Bou held a nine-point advantage over his closest rivals.

Arnau Farré (Sherco), Matteo Grattarola (Beta), Miquel Gelabert on the electric Honda RTL-E, and Hugo Dufrese (Beta) completed the classification. The French rider suffered a heavy crash in the first section of Q1, taking a hard blow to his shoulder and was unable to continue. Bou’s victory gives him a 42-point lead over Marcelli in the provisional championship standings, and a 46-point advantage over Busto, with 60 points still up for grabs.
