Celtic Match Races 2026 โ Scotland Race Report
Unfortunately, 2026 was not Scotland's year at the Celtic Match Races.
The team arrived ready to take on a new circuit, with everyone enjoying the challenge of learning a fresh track. Combined with an incredible atmosphere throughout the weekend, the event was a fantastic experience both on and off the circuit.
Saturday welcomed the Scottish team with sunshine, a fantastic atmosphere, and the exciting challenge of learning a brand-new circuit. As the day progressed, riders settled in, found their rhythm, and gained confidence on the track while taking on strong competition from across the Celtic nations.
A strong opening day filled with determination, teamwork, and plenty to build on.
Sunday's racing, however, was heavily affected by the weather. Standing water on the track delayed the start of racing, and as conditions changed, high winds became another major factor. With many members of the Scottish team also committed to the Scottish Championship next weekend, the team came together to discuss the situation and made the difficult decision to withdraw from the remainder of the Celtic Match Races.
Special thanks to Bobby McMullen for generously lending his bike to Johnny Stewart. Your support and sportsmanship were greatly appreciated.
Weโre also proud to celebrate Scotlandโs own Bryony Smart, who made history as the only female rider competing in the 2026 Celtic Match Races. A fantastic achievement and a great representation for Scottish Motorcycle Racing
A huge thank you to everyone who worked so hard to make this amazing event possible, from the organisers and officials to the volunteers and supporters who created such a memorable weekend.
Until next year โ๏ธ ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ
