The 2026 Walderstown Road Races, the famed “Race of the South,” returned to County Westmeath on July 18–19, 2026. Organised by the Fore Motorcycle Racing Club, the sun-drenched weekend delivered top-tier national road racing action highlighted by historic milestones and lap records.

Dunlop Dominates with Another Hat-Trick :

The headline story of the weekend belonged to Michael Dunlop MBE (MD Racing – BMW). Replicating his 2022 feat, Dunlop left the Walderstown circuit with a commanding hat-trick of race victories, including a masterful performance in the feature Terence Healy Motorcycles Open Race.

  • Historic Tally: The Open race victory marked Dunlop’s 137th career Irish National road race win.
  • The Podium: Dunlop maintained his perfect 2026 unbeaten streak in the 1000cc national category, overcoming pole-sitter Michael Sweeney (Martin Jones Racing – BMW) and early race leader Derek McGee (BE/RK Racing – BMW), who made a highly popular and strong return to the roads scene.
