VHR VRT Yamaha Official EMX250 team’s Janis Reisulis has been crowned 2025 EMX250 European Champion after finishing as runner-up in Race One at the final round in Turkiye. The victory marks a second major career milestone for Reisulis, who won the EMX125 European Championship back in 2023, with both titles achieved aboard Yamaha machinery.
The talented Latvian was undoubtedly the class of the field this season. Leading the series since the third round in Italy, the now two-time EMX Champion has picked up five overall victories so far, along with securing two additional podium finishes.
With one race remaining in this year’s championship, set to take place tomorrow, the GYTR-kitted Yamaha YZ250F racer is well-positioned to add more silverware to his growing trophy collection following today’s decisive second-place finish in Race One.
On his way to securing the 2025 EMX250 European Championship, Reisulis has also claimed the Manufacturers Championship title for Yamaha, marking the brand’s sixth success in the prestigious series, and the fourth in the last five years.
