May 12, 2026 – Le Mans, France. The American Racing Team left the Circuit Bugatti this Sunday with its best result of the 2026 Moto2 World Championship season, scoring 15 points after a weekend that confirmed the team’s clear step forward.

Filip Salač produced a stunning final flying lap in qualifying to vault to third on the grid, earning a place in parc fermé and the team’s first front-row start of the year. Joe Roberts secured sixth on the grid — his best qualifying of the season so far.

In the race, Filip Salač and Joe Roberts both reached the top ten in a Grand Prix that was red-flagged on the opening laps and then decided over a nine lap quick-started race. Joe crossed the line in eighth, while Filip, after fighting for first place before the red flag, recovered from being pushed wide on the restart to finish ninth.

The team now turns its attention to the next round of the 2026 Moto2 World Championship in Catalunya, confident that the recent development steps are paying off.
