The riders put their skills to the test on a roughly 6.8-km Hard Enduro course featuring steep slopes, dirt tracks, dry streams, rocky sections, natural forest, tea hills and technical obstacles. The competition featured a series of intense battles and chases, drawing large crowds of local residents and visitors from inside and outside the province.

A notable feature of the tournament was the first-ever introduction of a cultural experience space as an official part of the race course. Unlike traditional Enduro events, where checkpoints serve only to confirm riders' completion of a route, this year's checkpoints were designed as cultural exchange spaces showcasing the traditions of the Thai and Dao ethnic communities.

After completing the required race verification procedures, riders were welcomed by local residents, who tied bracelets around their wrists. The riders could then interact with local people and experience traditional cultural activities, including bamboo dancing by the Thai people and bell dancing by the Dao people, before taking a few minutes to rest and continue with the next challenges on the course.

The organisers did not set a mandatory stopping time at the checkpoints. Whether to resume racing immediately after completing the required procedures or spend more time on the cultural experience was left entirely to each rider's strategy.

At the conclusion of the event, the organising board awarded first prizes to Nguyen Van Ngoc in the Open category, Nguyen Duy Dung in the Semi-professional category and Nguyen Van Tao in the Professional category. Second and third prizes were also awarded in each category.

The Vietnam Off-Road Motorcycle Race – VTV Cup 2026 provided a professional and healthy sporting platform for off-road motorcycle racers nationwide. The event also promoted the tourism potential, natural beauty and rich community culture of Moc Chau plateau, as well as the image of its hospitable people, to domestic and international visitors./.
