News Saturday 07th August 2010 By Geoff Meyer

Two of the best riders in the World Antonio Cairoli and David Philippaerts are in danger of missing the MXoN this year. As mentioned in Antonio Cairoli's exclusive interview on MXlarge this week the Italian Federation are not willing to have large sponsor logos on the riders jerseys.
