After becoming the first American to win a race in the FIM Yamaha R3 BLU CRU World Cup and very nearly winning the season championship in the Yamaha spec series, former MotoAmerica Mini Cup rider Chris Clark will return to Europe for the 2026 season with high hopes of bringing home the championship.
Clark will remain with Panattoni BGR Smrz Racing for a third consecutive year and, with a full year’s experience under his belt in the highly competitive R3 BLU CRU World Cup, the 18-year-old from Fairfax, Virginia, is determined to race for the season title when the six-round, twelve-race series gets underway in May.
