Double Buggyland win for Ongaro

Buggyland 12 + 1, the 13th edition of the signature event of Spanish track builder Miguelo Izquierdo Rodriguez, took place over the weekend where it was Team Associated’s Davide Ongaro who took the double win. Missing last year’s event due the 1:10 Offroad Worlds in Australia, having done the Buggyland double in 2024, Ongaro would dominate the weekend securing the TQ before going on to take 1-hour final by 20-seconds from the Sworkz of fellow Italian Mattia Polito. Setting the fastest lap of the final, Polito would have a good battle with team-mate & 2025 winner Juan Carlos Canas in the closing stages of the race. Qualifying 5th, the Spaniard would complete the podium 1.5 seconds back on Polito. Former European B Champion David Todd finished P4 having qualified his Mugen Seiki in 8th, the Top 4 all finishing on the lead lap. Behind the Spaniard, Sparko’s Adrian Pariente and Tekno’s Joao Figueiredo rounded out the Top 6. In eBuggy it was reigning European Champion Figueiredo who topped seeding but come qualifying Ongaro took the TQ ahead of team-mate & eBuggy World Champion Marcus Kaerup and Todd. Qualifying P6, Polito would force the decider to go to A3 as he won A2 ahead of Ongaro but repeating his A1 win in the latter took the overall. They would be joined on the podium Adrian Pariente.
