All the details are already prepared so that, on February 1, Triumph motorcycles will begin a prosperous adventure in Talavera de la Reina, the circuit in charge of kick-starting the 2025 academic year.
Santiago Mulásgeneral director of Triumph Motorcycles Spain, said: “The interest of Triumph Spain, as a subsidiary of Triumph Motorcycles Limited, in entering the Spanish market is because we are in the midst of launching the new range of motocross motorcycles. That is why, logically, we are interested in having a presence in the competition through the Spanish Motocross Championship, since the product is intended directly for competition, so we had to be there.”
Continues: “And the best way to do it was to support a structure, in this case Jezyk Racing Teamwhich offers us total confidence to accompany us in the Championship. It should also be noted that Triumph began launching motocross motorcycles last year, mainly in the United States, achieving great impact and results. Once the American market, from a commercial and sporting point of view, has been launched, the rest of the markets have begun to define what had to be done in each region.”
Concludes: “In our case, logically, when the World Cup team was already functioning, it was when we began to be clear that we had to take over at the national level as well, and just like in Spain we are setting up a team for the national championship. of MX2, other countries such as France, Germany, Italy, etc. are also doing it. “It is an excellent test bed and showcase for us.”

The bike is excellent and the riders we will have are two great bets to fight with guarantees for our objectives. Being able to count on this support, without a doubt, gives Jezyk Racing Team a very big push and is the reward for work well done during these years. I am passionate about motocross and now I am alongside a team that feels the same way about this sport. “We are going for everything in Talavera.”
For his part, Iván Cervantes, ambassador and test rider of Triumph Motorcycles Limited, said: “For me, Triumph Spain fully entering the National motocross event means a lot. It means that, after the first steps that this brand has taken at a global level and at the level of the American AMA of Supercross and Motocross, with very good results, it was the perfect time for each country to start making noise at the national level.”
Continues: “I, as brand ambassador, got to work starting with the presentation of the new products and models, and I said: ‘Gentlemen, we have to go running, we have to go running at the National, so that people see us’, and above all we must continue with the same motivation and enthusiasm for this project that has been so ambitious from the beginning. What stands out about the motorcycle is what people say when they test it: you have made an excellent motorcycle, a motorcycle that is easy to ride for all types of audiences, powerful, a motorcycle that has nothing to envy of its rivals in terms of power. .”
He concludes: “It is the lightest motorcycle on the market, that is more than proven. You practically don’t have to touch anything. It is a motorcycle that, if you want, is already ready to go racing, and that is an advantage. A motorcycle with very good suspensions, very good brakes, a very manageable chassis that helps you a lot when entering the curves thanks to the new technology of the aluminum chassis and the surprising engine.”
