MARIA HERRERA Wins Wild Jerez WorldWCR Race as Title Fight Heats Up

October 18, 2025

• MARIA HERRERA claimed her sixth win of the season at Jerez in dramatic fashion, benefiting from a final-lap penalty handed to PAOLA RAMOS for irresponsible riding. The Klint Forward Racing Team rider now holds a crucial 15-point championship lead heading into the season finale, proving once again why she’s been the class of the field this year.
• CHLOE JONES delivered another consistent podium performance with second place, her fifth runner-up finish of the season that’s keeping her firmly planted in third in the championship standings. Meanwhile, BEATRIZ NEILA got bumped back onto the podium in third after initially finishing fourth due to contact with RAMOS in the final corner – talk about a wild finish that perfectly encapsulates this title fight.
• The American contingent had a tough day at the office with MALLORY DOBBS finishing 12th and SONYA LLOYD crossing the line 18th, both on Yamaha YZF-R7s. But wildcard rider PAOLA RAMOS showed she belongs at this level, setting a new lap record even while battling wheel-to-wheel with the championship leaders before that costly penalty dropped her off the podium.
