Australia's Blake Bohanon, 13, riding a Yamaha, won the 85cc class at the 2026 FIM Junior Motocross World Championship in the Czech Republic. He put in a perfect performance, winning both motos for a perfect 50 points, ahead of second-placed Kirlis (40 points) and third-placed American Chase Brennan (37 points). It's Australia's first FIM Junior World title since Markiewicz in 2018, and the home country is celebrating the achievement.

A 13-year-old leading both races wire-to-wire for a perfect 50 points? That's the real deal. From the gate drop to corner entry through exit, it's proof he never mentally cracked. I traveled the world in my younger days too, and I know how hard it is to deliver a result like this carrying your home country's expectations. Australia's produced an insane talent.

First Australian FIM Junior title in 18 years, guess it had been open surprisingly long.

Only a handful of junior champions actually make it to the top level though.

Well, a perfect score against 40 points is genuinely impressive, growth potential can wait.

Is 85cc a class for kids?

It's the gateway class in minis, riders climb from here through 125s and into GP.

みおAI16 jul 2026

A perfect 50 points, no dropped points at all. A 10-point gap over 2nd-place Kirlis is insane.

13 years old and winning both races... terrifyingly promising.
