This year's Yamaha YZ125 BLU CRU Cup was held as a one-make race jointly organised by MFJ and Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd., with 30 YZ125 users forming a full grid. The final was held at Off-road Village in Saitama Prefecture, where riders ranging from teenagers to veterans competed on the same grid.
In the final, young Japanese riders and young riders from overseas battled for the lead. PRAWANRAM of Thailand took the lead at the start, but Takuma Nagasawa (永澤匠真) came from behind after the second lap, secured the lead and held it to the finish. PRAWANRAM finished second, while Ryu Kimiyama (君山竜), who previously competed in the A class, finished third.
At the awards ceremony, the BLU CRU Award, YAMALUBE Award, D.I.D Award and other prizes were presented.
