F.C.C. TSR Honda France returned to the spotlight in the Endurance World Championship (EWC) this Saturday by winning the Spa-Francorchamps 8 Hours. Riders Corentin Perolari and Alan Techer led the team to the top step of the podium.

This marked the end of a long dry spell — their last win was at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in April 2023. The triumph came in a race shaped by unstable weather, dramatic incidents, and flawless tactical decisions by the Japanese outfit.

Rain, Crashes, and Penalties: Classic Spa Chaos

The race began under dry conditions, with Honda France leading consistently. Perolari and Techer alternated stints effectively, setting the tone for what looked like a straightforward run.

But Spa is rarely predictable. Heavy rain hit around 3:00 PM and changed everything. Jason O’Halloran from YART Yamaha shone in the wet, managing to take the lead with confident riding — the kind only true specialists can deliver.

However, a 10-second penalty for a refueling violation handed the advantage back to Honda. Even so, O’Halloran didn’t give up. He served the penalty, lost 43 seconds, and still regained the lead at 6:46 PM. But the fairy tale ended quickly. A violent crash just 15 minutes later forced a long pit stop and pushed the #7 Yamaha out of contention.

A Redemption Victory for Honda

From there, Honda managed the lead with precision. With no room for mistakes, Perolari and Techer stayed in control and crossed the finish line at 8:30 PM. The result brought Honda France a much-needed return to the top.

“This is my first win in the Endurance World Championship, and I’m really happy. The team did an excellent job, and so did Alan. It was amazing,” said a visibly emotional Corentin Perolari.

A Close Fight for the Podium

BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team, racing on home soil, claimed second place. YART Yamaha salvaged a crucial third after the earlier drama.

Yoshimura SERT Motul and Kawasaki Webike Trickstar completed the top five. Meanwhile, the British team Tati Team AVA6 Racing, with newcomers John McPhee and Charlie Nesbitt, secured a strong seventh-place finish just behind ERC Endurance.

Superstock and Production: Non-Stop Action

Champion-MRP-Tecmas won the Superstock class with Dunlop tires on their return to competition, finishing eighth overall. Team Bolliger Switzerland followed, while the 18 Pompiers Igol CMS beat National Motos Honda in a tight battle for second place in class.

In the Production category, Team Super Moto Racing claimed their second consecutive victory. ARTEC #199 and pole-sitter Green Team 42 Lycée Sainte Claire rounded out the podium.

Next Stop: Suzuka

Following this result, YART Yamaha heads to the Suzuka 8 Hours, taking place from August 1–3, with an 18-point lead in the championship. That margin could prove vital at the legendary Japanese round, where reliability and strategy matter just as much as outright speed.
