Akrapovič has supported top teams with its exhaust systems in the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship since its inception, and the 2024 season will see the Slovenian company take a further step by becoming the title sponsor of the Hard Enduro Live Experience.
The all-new Akrapovič Hard Enduro Live Experience will offer real-time event coverage including live timing, live rider tracking, and social media coverage, all aimed at bringing spectators and fans closer to the racing. With coverage from each event of the seven rounds of the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship, the Akrapovič Hard Enduro Live Experience will be easily accessible on the championship website iridehardenduro.com and will give spectators and fans from around the world full access during the entire race weekend.
Akrapovič has many teams using its durable performance exhaust systems in the HEWC, and it is delighted to be able to work with WESS Promotion GmbH – the championships organizers – to present the Akrapovič Hard Enduro Live Experience. This will raise the profile of the Slovenian company in this exciting sport through the visibility that HEWC provides, which will also see the Akrapovič logo featuring on all official championship standings and event results, along with results-focused social media posts.
Round one of the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship takes place this weekend at Valleys Hard Enduro in Wales in the UK on May 10‒12 before the championship moves on to Austria, Serbia, Romania, the US, Turkey, and Spain as the season progresses.

Winfried Kerschhaggl, FIM Hard Enduro World Championship:
“It’s great to see Akrapovič support the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship with the Akrapovič Hard Enduro Live Experience. Akrapovič are synonymous with off-road motorcycling. For them to support the HEWC like this is incredible and is something we will build on for the future. It’s not always possible for fans to attend races, but with this initiative we can keep them updated and involved with the action. From our live timing, live rider tracking, and social media coverage, there is lots to learn about each race weekend.”
Miha Jeraj, Director of the Akrapovič Racing Department:
“Hard Enduro is a sport on the rise, and so we feel it’s the right time to support the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship even further, while continuing to provide the highest level of technical support to various top racing teams in the HEWC. By its nature, Hard Enduro is a difficult sport to cover. Introducing the Akrapovič Hard Enduro Live Experience is important for us to help improve and streamline results, live timing, and information throughout a race weekend. We are looking forward to growing this partnership and are very excited to see the 2024 season get underway this weekend in Wales.”
