Sherco Factory Racing’s Mario Roman has hit the ground running at the opening round of the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship, winning the Minus 400. Continually at the front during the first two days of competition in Israel, the Spaniard raced his way to the overall win on the third and final day in the Minus 400 Main Event.
Defending FIM Hard Enduro World Champion Billy Bolt made good his start to the 2022 season with the Husqvarna Factory Racing rider placing second. Coming off the injury bench with a bang, Graham Jarvis brought his own Jarvis Racing Team Husqvarna home in third.
After a highly charged opening two days of racing, the outcome of round one of the 2022 FIM Hard Enduro World Championship boiled down to the Minus 400 Main Event. A 75-kilometre-long course that increased in difficulty with each kilometre was made even more challenging due to the intense heat riders faced in Israel.
Showing he’s unfazed by the extreme temperatures, Sherco’s Wade Young - winner on day two - was out to claim victory on day three and immediately set the pace. The South African looked comfortable out front as he navigated the slippery terrain and rocky climbs with relative ease.
Billy Bolt - winner on day one - sat behind him in second and after starting in fourth, Mario Roman was charging forward. Entering the service point the trio were grouped together and as they began the second half of the race, the fight was on.
The final key sections would prove decisive in the outcome of the podium. A highly technical boulder garden, made even harder by the furnace-like heat baking the rocks, was where Roman made his move. Taking control of the race lead, he managed to put a gap into his rivals and from there to the finish line was never challenged, claiming a seven-minute margin of victory.
For Bolt, hopes of victory didn’t come his way. Still managing a wrist injury and faced with a determined Roman, he had to be content with second in Israel.
The fight for the final step of the podium rapidly developed in the closing stages with those final technical key sections taking no prisoners. After a slow start, Graham Jarvis came on strong exiting service and was suddenly in contention. Mistakes from Young opened a gap, and the wily Brit took full advantage to take third.
AG Racing Team 89’s Alfredo Gomez (GASGAS) was another rider on the move in the closing stages and he too capitalised on Young’s late errors to race his way into fourth. Despite a strong start, Young’s mistakes on the final climbs proved his undoing. With no time to regroup, the South African was naturally disappointed with fifth.
After the extreme heat and dry terrain of Israel’s Dead Sea, the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship now heads deep into the Serbian Mountains for round two with the Xross Hard Enduro Rally on May 18-21.

All in all an awesome event. Bear in mind this is the first time we hold an international Motorsport event of this magnitude in Israel. Riders for Riders and all those who contributed did an amazing job. Hope this is the first of many WESS events. See you next year 🇮🇱

He may not be the fastest or strongest but my God Jarvis just keeps on performing at an elite level. Anything other than Moto/Supercross and Dakar Graham is the greatest of all time!

A very challenging course
Super Mario 🤙

jarvissss !!
Mantaffff.....broooo.....
That was slick at 9:50, foot on seat vs pegs to keep pressure on rear tire! Improvise...
i wish i could be there 😢😅
Is there Rookie race for hard enduro ?
What happens to Wade Young, he was ahead of Bolt and Jarvis near the end.
I remember a 2 decades ago they said 2 strokes were going to be a thing of the past.
9:45 is such a riding hack and tip EVERYONE needs to do when pushing their bike or if someone is pushing your bike!!! SHERCO FOR THE WINNNNNNN!!!
😁😎
😍😍
at 1.11 the biker does the mario theme. lol
Brightness has issues. Fix please
“What did yoy do in your weekend?” “Well, i went to a hole in the ground, added too much heat and dust for anyones wellbeings. Then i carried and lifted my bike around, burned the tires, crashed 100 times, even crawled around on my knees in sharp rocks, and somebody even clapped at me”….. If it sounds ridiculous, it may propably be so….?
❤️🇹🇭👍
Looks like a sweet race but all your footage is either too close or too far away. Hire some professionals like me!
Free 🇵🇸 free Palestine 🇵🇸
Great job Mario and Graham, you are both class acts. Bolt is a cretin so could care less about him.
Seems walk in the park compared to what they do across the pond
you say that, but only 5 riders manage to finish the race
Donnie, what are you talking about? These are the best hard enduro riders in the world, no?
You must be from Texas, & you're coached by the Orange one...
