The Monster Energy Motocross of Nations held in USA, Ironman will certainly remain in the memory of motocross fans for a longtime!

After two great editions in Red Bud, we finally came back to the US, and finally the sunshine gave us the perfect setting for an incredible week of festivities.

The collaboration with MX Sports throughout the entire year of preparation for the most popular off-road event of the year led us to great success. Crawfordsville welcomed all the participants with a fantastic parade that went across the city. It was great to see thousands of fans and local residents cheering and welcoming the 37 nations that competed this year. It will remain a great moment in the history of our sport.

The weekend of the Motocross of Nations is always full of action, and once you arrive onsite, you can be sure to experience something special. The paddock was filled with hospitality areas and various activities. One of the highlights of the weekend was certainly the final of the Yamaha BLU CRU, which brought together the best Yamaha Junior riders from the 65cc, 85cc, and 125cc classes from all around the world to race on Saturday and Sunday in front of the fans. As always, it is important to connect professional athletes with the future of our sport, and since the creation of the European Championships taking place during MXGP, it has been our goal to include more events featuring kids and juniors in both the Grand Prix and the Motocross of Nations. This year, the broadcasting of the Junior World Championship held in France was also a continuation of this program.

Coming back to the Motocross of Nations, Team Australia arrived with one of the strongest line-ups, determined to defend their first-ever title won last year on British soil. However, Team USA was equally eager to fight for victory on home ground. The line-ups from the top teams were very impressive and gave us a fantastic weekend of racing. Australia, the USA, and France completed this year’s podium. The young Belgian team showed that we will have to count on them in the years to come, while Slovenia achieved a historic fifth position thanks to the stunning performance of Tim Gajser.

Next year’s edition will take place on the mythic track of Ernee in France and it promises to be epic once again. I would like to thank the FIM, FIM Europe, all the National Federations that host a Grand Prix, our local organizers, the media that covered MXGP during this season, all our partners, the official manufacturers, all the teams and all the riders that participated to our events, from 6 years old to our newly crowned World Champions.

Finally, I would like to thank all the MXGP fans who attended the races for making our sport so special!

It has been a memorable season, and we will work hard to make the next one even better.

MXGP Rocks!
