It was a strong season contesting in the EMX125 championship which even saw Niccolò Mannini have the red plate at the start of the season. In the end he finished fourth overall in a very competitive championship.
It has been announced that Mannini and TM, despite signing a two year deal have parted company. TM won’t be racing the EMX250 championship in 2026.
Mannini will actually race a 250cc this weekend in the Italian Championship on a Honda machine but at this moment still doesn’t have any plans for the 2026 season but hopefully he can secure a ride to contest the EMX250 series.
As for TM, they will likely be back on the market to contest the EMX125 championship for the 2026 season.
TM posted the following statement on social media:
Mutual separation between Niccolò Mannini and TM Moto
TM Moto announces the mutual separation with rider Niccolò Mannini. After a fruitful collaboration, both parties have decided to end the relationship before the end of the season.
This decision comes from the differing needs of the two sides. TM Moto had already informed the rider that he would not be part of the TM Corse CRD Motorsport plans for the 2026 season, as the team will not be contesting the EMX250 European Championship. From there, the rider requested to be released in order to move ahead with his transition to the MX2 class in 2026 with another structure.
In thanking Niccolò for his commitment and the excellent results achieved, TM Moto and the CRD team wish him the very best in continuing his sporting career.
