Burkan FPV takes MultiGP Global Qualifier lead with 26.33000

Burkan FPV has taken over the top spot in the MultiGP Global Qualifier 2026 presented by EMAX with a 26.33000, and that run has redrawn the qualifying race at the sharp end of the leaderboard. In a format where MultiGP times the fastest three consecutive laps, a number that clean can turn one pilot into the pace-setter and force everyone else to attack the track with less room for error.

The update matters because the Global Qualifier is not a side event. MultiGP’s May 2026 leaderboard update put 927 pilots from 38 countries into the competition, a field large enough that every move near the top can ripple through seeding and visibility. Burkan FPV’s leap into first means the chase pack now has a clear standard to beat, and the margin between contention and catch-up has narrowed to the kind of precision that defines FPV racing at this level.

The track itself has been part of the story since March 23, when Joe Scully presented the official 2026 Global Qualifier track after MultiGP’s track design contest. That timing matters because the current benchmark was not set on a generic layout. It was built on the specific 2026 Global Qualifier course, the same route tied to MultiGP’s championship pathway and its schedule and leaderboard pages for the season.

MultiGP’s championship structure makes the pressure immediate. The league has already pointed to Drone World Cup Canada as the 2026 main event, so every strong qualifying time is carrying real weight inside the bigger road to the title. Burkan FPV’s 26.33000 now sits as the number others must attack, and because the league measures the fastest three consecutive laps, the answer will not come from one flashy split. It will take a cleaner sequence, less scrub through the turns, and the kind of pace that survives three laps without giving time back in the gates.

For now, Burkan FPV owns the lead that resets the conversation. In a global field this deep, one 26.33000 does more than top a board: it sets the pace line every rival has to hit to stay in the race.
