Sandro Bellio claimed his third FIA European Top Methanol Championship in style with a victory in a ‘winner takes it all’ final of the European Finals. It must have been a déjà vu feeling for the Belgian drivers as he clinched his 2022 title in exactly the same way by defeating Jonny Lagg in the last run of the season. At the halfway point of the season, the title seemed to be out of reach for the family run Danny’s Racing Team, but after a great comeback, the title race went down to the wire with still five drivers in contention for the 2025 crown. Time to look back with the champion on another difficult but in the end successful season.

Marcus Christiansen and father Claus ‘Speedy’ continued to rip up the record books in FIM-E Super Twin in 2025. The Great Danes continued to stamp out performance levels hitherto unseen with a naturally aspirated twin, with a 6.0779s at a non-championship event in Sweden in June getting below Bob Malloy’s long standing 6.09 that had been a target for the team for a while now. Not content with the ET mark, they also bagged a record class championship title at the end of a ferociously contested series.

It was quite a year for Rikard Gustafsson and the RG Engineering Puma team, starting with the pre-season unveiling of a new look for the Falkenberg-based flying machine thanks to Indian Motorcycles coming on board as a major backer. On track, the FIM-E championship chase was more of a challenge as Gustafsson would miss the round in Germany as a result of an unfortunate calendar clash with the popular Mosten Raceday in Denmark. However, the Swede delivered a weekend spectacular performance at the Euro Finals in September to pick up the 2025 title with a bit to spare.
