A EUROPEAN RECORD, A RUN TO THE FINAL… AND A FINAL THAT NEVER HAPPENED!

What a weekend for Luke Farrugia at Round 3 of the FIM European Championship in Hockenheim, Germany.

Luke produced a world class performance, setting a sensational 6.14 @ 221 MPH. A NEW European Funny Bike Record,before cruising his way through eliminations and earning his place in the final against Stuart Crane.

Unfortunately, that final never happened.

A major oil down on track, combined with the strict curfew imposed at Hockenheim, brought the event to a premature end, forcing organisers to cancel the remaining finals.

Nevertheless, Luke leaves Germany after another phenomenal weekend:

🥇 NUMBER ONE QUALIFIER HOCKENHEIM IN EVERY ROUND.
🌍 NEW EUROPEAN FUNNY BIKE RECORD: 6.14 @ 221 MPH.
⚡ QUICKEST BIKE OF THE 2026 HOCKENHEIM EVENT.
🏁 FINALIST (FINAL CANCELLED DUE TO EVENT CURFEW)

And now, the full focus turns to the biggest event of the year: THE EURO FINALS at Santa Pod Raceway, UK, in just two weeks’ time.

Luke heads to Santa Pod with his lead in the FIM TOP FUEL European Championship strengthened and with one massive goal firmly in sight : That FIM European Crown.

Can Luke bring it home to Malta? We will know in two weeks’ time.

One thing is for sure: our hopes are in the hands of one of the best & talent riders in Europe, backed by an amazing team capable of delivering at the very highest level.

🇲🇹 MALTA, GET BEHIND OUR AMBASSADOR!
A much awaited European FIM DRAG RACING crown is on the line.

Simon Giordmaina — HOCKENHEIM, GERMANY 🇩🇪

A strong qualifying performance for Simon Giordimaina at Round 3 of the FIM European Championship in Hockenheim.

In a huge 19 bike Super Street Bike field, Simon qualified No8 with a 6.99 second pass, putting himself among the very few riders to break into the 6 second zone this weekend.

It proved to be a challenging event for the entire Super Street Bike class, with many riders struggling to put together the performances they were looking for throughout the weekend.

Unfortunately, Simon’s race came to an end in the first round of eliminations, forcing him to bow out earlier than hoped.

Still, a 6.99 and a Top 8 qualifying position in a 19-bike field gives plenty of positives to take away from Germany.

Heads up and onto the next one!

TOUGH WEEKEND FOR Glenn Borg IN HOCKENHEIM 🇩🇪

It was a challenging weekend for Glen Borg at Round 3 of the FIM European Championship in Hockenheim, Germany.

From the beginning of the event, Glen and the team found themselves fighting several issues, working hard throughout the weekend trying to get the bike back where they wanted it.

And just when it looked like things had finally started to turn around, unfortunately racing can be cruel.

Glen had to bow out in the first round of eliminations, bringing his Hockenheim weekend to an earlier end than everyone had hoped for.

But that’s drag racing. Sometimes the results don’t reflect the amount of work, determination and effort happening behind the scenes.

Onto the next one!

HISTORY MADE IN SWEDEN- Luke Farrugia WINS IN TIERP! 🏆

What a weekend for Luke & his team at Round 2 of the FIM European Drag Racing Championship at Tierp Arena, Sweden!

Competing in the elite Top Fuel Bike class aboard the Warpspeed-Krojs Funnybike “Checkmate”, Luke had to battle extremely difficult track conditions throughout qualifying, with the entire class struggling for traction.

Despite the conditions, Luke produced a 6.66 second pass at 197 mph, enough to finish qualifying at the No1 spot and quickest bike in the class.

Q3 brought a scary moment when the bike spun at the hit, made a hard move to the left and brushed the wall. Thankfully Luke was OK, and the team worked hard to repair the damage and get everything ready for eliminations.

Come race day, it wasn’t about chasing low ETs or big speeds but it was about adapting to the conditions, getting the bike from A to B and getting the job done. And that is exactly what the team did!

With this victory, Luke makes Maltese drag racing history, becoming the FIRST MALTESE drag bike rider to win an FIM Top Fuel Bike event!

An incredible achievement for Luke and the entire team. From difficult track conditions and a brush with the wall to standing on the top step of the podium ,a weekend that showed that winning isn’t always about the numbers on the timing board, but about doing what it takes when it matters most.

And the results this season speak for themselves: 2 EVENT WINS FROM 3 EVENTS! A massive well done to Luke Farrugia and the whole team behind him. Malta is proud!

Luke now heads to Round 3 at Hockenheim, Germany 🇩🇪 as the FIM Top Fuel Bike CHAMPIONSHIP LEADER!

TOUGH WEEKEND AT THE OFFICE FOR SIMON GIORDIMAINA 🇸🇪

Simon Giordmaina has completed Round 2 of the FIA/FIM European Drag Racing Championship at Tierp Arena, Sweden, competing in the highly competitive FIM Super Street Bike class.

It proved to be a challenging weekend from the start. After some tough qualifying rounds, Simon recorded a best pass of 7.07 seconds,well away from the pace and performance we know he is capable of, especially after the strong form he showed earlier this season at Santa Pod.

Unfortunately, the weekend came to an end in the first round of eliminations, but well done to Simon and the whole team for their hard work and determination throughout the weekend

The team will now regroup and prepare for Round 3 at Hockenheim, Germany 🇩🇪
