Triumph Factory Racing claimed its first-ever MX2 Grand Prix victory at the MXGP of Andalucia, with Camden McLellan taking overall honours in round two of the 2026 FIM MX2 Motocross World Championship. The 21-year-old South African now leads the championship, with teammate Guillem Farres third in the standings.
It is only Triumph’s third season of MX2 competition. The British manufacturer took podium finishes in year one and race wins in year two; a Grand Prix overall win in year three is a significant step forward.
Farres led Moto One almost wire-to-wire on home soil, with McLellan second to give Triumph a 1-2. McLellan went one better in Moto Two, taking the lead with six laps remaining to seal overall victory. A technical issue for Farres in race two cost the team what could have been a double podium.
“My first ever overall win, and also a first overall victory for Triumph,” said McLellan. “This result is a reflection of everyone’s hard work.”
Team manager Vincent Bereni added: “Achieving our first Grand Prix win as a manufacturer and taking the red plate is a huge milestone. To be leading the MX2 World Championship at this stage is something everyone in the team can be proud of.”
The weekend brought further good news for the Triumph camp. In MXGP, Dirt Store Triumph Racing’s Ben Watson took eighth in race one aboard the TF 450-X – the brand’s best premier class moto result to date. In AMA Supercross, Jordon Smith secured Triumph’s first top-ten finish, taking ninth in the main event.
