Murray Motorsport brings mountune powered Honda Civic Supercars to one of rallycross’ biggest stages
Murray Motorsport headed to Circuit de Lohéac in France for one of the biggest rallycross events of the 2026 season, with its Honda Civic Supercars putting mountune power onto an international stage.
The landmark weekend celebrated 50 years of rallycross at Lohéac, bringing together the FIA European Rallycross Championship, French Rallycross Championship and Motorsport UK British Rallycross Championship 5 Nations Trophy. Across the event, 53 Supercars were entered, creating one of the strongest rallycross fields assembled in recent years.
For mountune, the weekend represented another opportunity to demonstrate our engineering in one of motorsport’s most demanding environments.
PROVEN IN COMPETITION
Rallycross places exceptional demands on an engine. Short, intense races combine standing starts, repeated acceleration, mixed surfaces and close competition, making outright performance only one part of the equation. Consistency and reliability are equally critical.
The Murray Motorsport Honda Civic Supercars compete with mountune developed power, combining the team’s extensive rallycross experience with our approach to competition engine engineering.
At Lohéac, that package faced a field featuring some of the biggest names in international rallycross, including Johan Kristoffersson, Andreas Bakkerud and Sébastien Loeb.
TAKING ON EUROPE’S BEST
Eoin Murray produced a strong showing in the Honda Civic, progressing through his quarter final and into the Euro RX1 semi finals against an exceptionally competitive field.
The weekend ultimately belonged to home favourite Fabien Pailler, who claimed his maiden Euro RX1 victory ahead of Andreas Bakkerud and Juha Rytkönen, while the scale of the event underlined the continued strength of top level rallycross.
For mountune, programmes such as Murray Motorsport’s Civic Supercars are part of a much wider competition engineering story. From touring cars to rallycross and specialist race engines, the same objective remains: developing performance that delivers when it matters.
Competition proven. Engineered by mountune.
