Tribün podcast: what makes Supermoto spectacular? Kardos explains

Kardos discussed Supermoto, its asphalt-only S4 class and the demands of training and racing in a Tribün podcast conversation.

In a Tribün podcast discussion, Gergő Kardos and Tamás Kis explored the appeal of Supermoto, with a particular focus on the 2026 Hungarian Grand Prix at Visonta and the introduction of the S4 category. The conversation offered a racer’s perspective on the sport and its challenges.

Kardos explained how traditional Supermoto combines asphalt and off-road sections, whereas S4 races take place exclusively on pavement. The format places particular emphasis on late braking, rapid corner sequences and close on-track battles.

The interview also covered his route from road racing into Supermoto. Having gained experience at circuits abroad, Kardos described international competition as an important long-term ambition.

Physical preparation was another theme. Consistently fast laps require more than time on a motorcycle: endurance training, repeated practice and recovery all play a part.
