News Tuesday 09th March 2010 By Jeff Perrett

With the prospect of sunny weather for this weekend for the first round of the 2010 Red Bull Pro Nationals everything is looking good. The iconic Foxhill Moto Parc is groomed and ready for the best motocross talent in the UK to do their thing and get the series off to a cracking start.

From the awesome kids of the Red Bull Elite Youth Cup, to the screaming 2 stroke racers of the Fuchs-Silkolene 2 Stroke British championship, through to the country’s top stars in the Red Bull Pro Nationals races themselves they’ll be some great bar banging action. With a few of the top pros like PAR Honda’s Brad Anderson carrying injuries into the race from last weekend’s Hawkstone International it’s going to be interesting to see who comes out on top but whatever happens defending pro champions Carl Nunn (MVR-D Suzuki) MX1 and Neville Bradshaw (Samsung / Maxxis Yamaha) MX2 will have to be at their best to hold the others back.

 

Of course they’ll also be the Live FMX Tour doing their flippin’ crazy antics, the Suzuki mx try out experience, VIP Hospitality, the big TV screen, trade stands, plenty of refreshments, some chilled out and pumping music and the dynamic duo of Jack Burnicle and Roger Warren taking you through the action for the whole weekend.

 

They’ll also be the chance for you to do your bit for Sport Relief over the weekend. After the Saturday programme of races the MCF will be laying on a one mile running course so those that wish to do their bit for charity can do the Sport Relief mile. Each entrant will be issued with a transponder to register their time and will then be required to pay a minimum of 50 pence per the closest minute to the Sport Relief cause. Of course if anyone is brave enough to put their rate per minute up higher than 50 pence they are more than welcome! Then for those that are gasping for a drink there’s the Red Bull Party that night where they can quench their thirst and brag about their race times!

 

Gates open at 8.30am on both Saturday and Sunday with the action starting at 9am.

 

The Red Bull Pro Nationals and the Foxhill Moto Parc will be heavily signposted from major trunk roads around Swindon and from junction 15 of the M4. Just follow the bright yellow signs.

European Motocross Circuits - Always a Challenge

What makes the Grand Prix series so popular is the fact that the circuits in Europe are very different to those of many other parts of the World. Unlike in America where the circuits are often groomed the same. No matter what type of design or elevation, the dirt is often tacky and loaded with grip. Europe on the other hand has various types of dirt.
