David Luongo the Chief Executive Officer at Infront Moto Racing gives us some details about what is happening in the coming period, and also what is behind us in 2025. It has been a sensational season with drama in both MXGP and MX2 championships.

David Luongo: We are already entering the last part of the season with six Grand Prix and the Monster Energy Motocross of Nations and we can feel that all the championships are getting more and more disputed!

The last events that took place in UK, Finland and Czech Republic have been very exciting in both MXGP and MX2. The fight on top of the MXGP classification between Romain Febvre and Lucas Coenen has intensified and after the victory of the young Belgian in Loket the gap reduced to 10 points only. It was also great to see Glenn Coldenhoff performing so well on the Fantic factory and establishing his third overall position on the classification while Calvin Vlanderen scored his first podium of the season in the sand of Finland.

In MX2, the fight will turn most probably to a trio of great riders with Simon Längenfelder leading the championship with 47 points in front of Andrea Adamo and 59 in front of Kay De Wolf. The MX2 races have been really open since the beginning of the season, showing a fantastic generation of talented riders that we will be see soon in MXGP category. The rookie Valin secured his first podium in MX2 at the occasion of Loket and added his name to the long list of podium awarded riders in this category this year.

Kymi Ring was a new venue on this season calendar and the level of organization was very good. It was a great combination of the great infrastructure that a World class road race circuit could offer with a very typical Finnish motocross track on the natural terrain surrounding the road race circuit. The finish fans answered the call and welcomed very positively the comeback of MXGP in their country. During this Grand Prix, we announced the prolongation of our collaboration with Kegums – Latvia to bring the MXGP to the Baltic country until 2029. We also announced the 2027 Junior World Championship which will take place in Estonia, proving the great dynamic of our sport in this part of Europe.

The Junior World Championship took place in France this year and again it reached new standards in term of organization and sport level. For the very first time, this event has been televised and broadcasted live on MXGP-TV and some National Channel, in France L’Equipe for example. Despite the rain that didn’t help the organizer and the riders, the races were very exciting and crowned France as Nations Winner with two victories in 85cc with Rafael Mennillo and 125cc with Mano Faure. In 65cc, Kannon Zabojnik brought the World Title to United States. Those three names will for sure continue to make noise in the years to come.

The Monster Energy Motocross of Nations is getting closer as well and promises to be one of the most epic of the last years. Team Australia just announced their line up and they will defend their title with the same squad as last year in UK. Jett and Hunter Lawrence will be joined by Kyle Webster to defend their title on American soil. More teams will announce their line up in the upcoming weeks.

Finally our official YouTube Channel just reached 600.000 subscribers, a fantastic milestone for MXGP. It is mainly thanks to the very popular Behind The Gate, our 26 minutes program who reached more than 3 millions views during the 2025 season up to now, one of the greatest and most following Off-Road program in the world.

Now it is the time to prepare yourself for the most demanding and awaited Grand Prix of the season, Lommel is calling for the MXGP of Belgium and you can be sure that it will mark again a turning point in the season. In MXGP and MX2 class but it will also be the finale of the EMX125cc where Mano Faure, the freshly crowned 125cc Junior World Champion is sitting only six points back of the Italian talent, Nicolo Alvisi. It will for sure be exciting and emotional.
