The MotoAmerica Mission Mini Cup National Final roared into action at Road America’s Briggs & Stratton Motorplex, with Mahdi Salem taking center stage. The GP 190 standout blazed through both track configurations, posting the fastest times in Friday’s practice sessions and setting the stage for an electrifying weekend of racing.

Dozens of young riders, battle-hardened from over 20 regional qualifiers, took on the challenging Motorplex layouts to prepare for the high-stakes championship battles ahead. With four races per class scheduled – two on Saturday and two on Sunday – points will be tallied, crowning six AMA National Champions with the coveted AMA number-one plates by Sunday’s finale.

Other riders who excelled in practice included Jase Dill, who topped the GP 160 sessions on both layouts and Chase Jazikoff, who also went fastest on both layouts in the Stock 110 class. Maverick Johnson, Zaal Farhand, Cooper Jazikoff and Marcus Su also topped practice sessions on Friday.

The 2025 Mission Mini Cup National Final marks its second year with nearly double the entries of last season’s debut, showcasing the sport’s skyrocketing popularity. Defending champions Mahdi Salem, Gabriel Datis, Jase Dill, and Chase Jazikoff are back, ready to fight to retain their titles.

Saturday’s racing kicks off at 12:45 p.m. Central with the first GP 190 race, followed by a full slate of action, wrapping up with the GP 110 Race 2 at 4:40 p.m. Sunday mirrors the schedule, ensuring non-stop thrills from start to finish.

The 2025 Mission Mini Cup National Final will be featured on MotoAmerica Live+ with live streaming and video on-demand of Saturday and Sunday’s race action with commentary from the MotoAmerica Live+ commentary team of Roger Hayden and Jamie Howe.
