Infront Moto Racing is proud to continue its partnership with Acerbis for the Acerbis Best Lap Competition, a highlight of the 2025 FIM Motocross World Championship.
This season once again delivered unforgettable action across MXGP and MX2, with the Acerbis Best Lap awards shining a spotlight on the riders who combined speed, focus, and determination to clock the fastest laps of the year.
How does the competition work?
At the end of each Grand Prix, the rider who records the fastest lap in both MXGP and MX2 earns one point in the Acerbis Best Lap Competition. The rider with the most points at the end of the season takes home the Acerbis Best Lap Award, officially presented during the MXGP Awards ceremony.

After winning the Acerbis Best Lap Award in MX2 in 2024, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Lucas Coenen carried his raw pace into the premier class in 2025, securing the MXGP Acerbis Best Lap Award with 8 fastest laps across the 20-round season, 40% of all races.
His ability to find another level of speed under pressure highlighted his debut MXGP campaign. Coenen becomes one of the few riders to win the Acerbis Best Lap title in both categories, and he did it in back-to-back years.
Behind him, Red Bull KTM teammate Jeffrey Herlings finished with 4 fastest laps while Tim Gajser from Honda HRC and Romain Febvre from Kawasaki Racing Team each posted 3.
In MX2, Simon Längenfelder from Red Bull KTM Factory Racing delivered blistering pace all season long to secure the MX2 Acerbis Best Lap Award with 6 fastest laps, representing 30% of the season’s races.
Just behind, Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Kay de Wolf finished just behind with 5 followed by Red Bull KTM riders Sacha Coenen with 4 and Andrea Adamo with 2 which shows the tightness in the series this year.
