This very special evening has only been possible thanks to the support of the Canton of Vaud, the City of Lausanne and Swiss Moto, plus all the other stakeholders who have been able to join us to celebrate our collective achievements on and off the track this year. Each and every champion who has taken to the stage has earned and been totally worthy of the gold medal they have collected from our legends and special guests who were on hand to present these awards. The evening was brought to the perfect close by being able to present the new FIM Sporting Trophy to Marc Marquez who produced one of the greatest sporting comebacks ever this season. Finally on behalf of the FIM I would like to thank everyone who has been part of our successes during 2025, I truly hope together we can make 2026 even better.”
