The 2024 Red Bull Tennesse Knockout took place over the weekend in Sequatchie, TN, and it was Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Manuel Lettenbichler taking home a hard fought win over defending TKO champ Trystan Hart (FMF KTM Factory Racing). As Round 5 of the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship and the finale of the AMA US Hard Enduro Series TKO was a busy race with implications across both series, and even though Hart was likely disappointed with his P2 finish behind Lettenbichler, he did secure his incredible FOURTH consecutive USHE overall championship. Coming into the weekend we were looking at three main storylines: the Hart vs. Lettenbichler battle; the FIM HEWC overall; and the battle for the final overall podium in the USHE championship. Let’s dive in and see how these all played it out in Tennessee!

The 2024 Red Bull Tennesse Knockout is kicking off later today, and this year’s edition is looking to be an interesting one! This year we see the race hosting the final round of the AMA US Hard Enduro Series (USHE) and the 5th round of the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship (HEWC). While Canada’s Trystan Hart (FMF KTM Factory Racing) looks to have effectively sealed his third consecutive USHE overall title, things are tighter on the HEWC side after Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Manuel Lettenbichler missed a round after a knee injury. But most interesting of all should be the battle between Hart and Lettenbichler! Hart is highly motivated to beat Lettenbichler on ‘home’/North American soil as he has done several times previously. The Robot has openly said that beating Mani is his main goal this weekend. The bottom line is that this is going to be a great weekend of Hard Enduro racing here in North America. TKO’s short format racing setup is fast and exciting, and the battle between Hart and Lettenbichler should be epic. The racing for overall positions on both the USHE and HEWC sides should also be very hard-fought with several riders having huge motivation to make gains as we start in towards of the outdoor season. Let’s take a closer look at the storylines going into TKO 2024!
