Munich. A premiere for the 2021 finale: the Autodrom Most in the Czech Republic is hosting the FIM Endurance World Championship (EWC) for the first time this season. The BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team will be racing there this coming weekend (7th to 9th October) in the fourth and final event of the season, the 6 Hours of Most. Once again, Markus Reiterberger (GER), Ilya Mikhalchik (UKR) and Kenny Foray (FRA) will be in the saddle on the #37 BMW M 1000 RR. Xavi Forés (ESP) can’t particitpate at Most due to the shoulder injury he suffered during free practice for the Bol d’Or at Le Castellet (FRA).

The famous 8 Hours of Suzuka in Japan had originally been scheduled as the season finale, however the Coronavirus situation rendered that impossible, prompting the FIM EWC to move the season finale to Most. It will be appearing there at the weekend, together with the World Touring Car Cup (FIA WTCR). Although Most is a new addition to the FIM EWC calendar, the BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team is familiar with the circuit in the north-west of the Czech Republic from the International German Motorcycle Championship (IDM), in which Mikhalchik recently claimed his third championship title. The BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team has been testing with the #37 M RR at Most ahead of the finale. BMW Motorrad Motorsport also competed there at the start of August in the FIM Superbike World Championship (WorldSBK).

The two qualifying sessions will take place on Thursday 7th October. The race starts on Saturday 9th October at 11:00 CEST. The race was originally scheduled to last eight hours, however it was reduced to six hours due to noise control regulations, and to ensure that the riders would have sufficient daylight. As at every FIM EWC finale, the number of points on offer is increased by 150 %, meaning that the winner scores 45 points and pole position is worth five points.

The BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team secured the third spot on the podium in the first two races of the season at Le Mans (FRA) and Estoril (POR). At race three at Le Castellet, the team was again involved in the battle for the podium but was forced to retire early due to a technical problem. The BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team is heading to the finale in fifth position in the championship standings, 21 points behind second place.
