MXGP OF SPAIN TO HOST 2022 JUNIOR E-MOTOCROSS SERIES OPENER

intu Xanadù-Arroyomolinos (Spain), 26 May 2022 - In just a few days’ time the 2022 European Junior e-Motocross Series will kick off in Spain with the series once again ready to showcase e-powered motorsport to a global audience. Offering everyone a glimpse into the future of offroad racing, the exciting series will bring together around 30 young riders from across Europe to battle for the title. Scheduled to be contested over five rounds, each stop on the tour will take place alongside selected rounds of the prestigious MXGP World Championship with the series concluding in July at the MXGP of Czech Republic.

Created as a partnership between Infront Moto Racing, KTM, Husqvarna Motorcycles, and GASGAS in 2021, the Junior e-Motocross Series will once again demonstrate the advancing capabilities of e-powered motorcycle technology. For 2022 the popularity of the pioneering championship is underlined by the fact that the series is oversubscribed for the second year running. Those fortunate to have secured a place behind the gate will compete on one of the innovative machines from the three brands involved – the KTM SX-E 5, the Husqvarna EE 5, or GASGAS’ MC-E 5.

Very soon the truly international line-up of 6–8-year-olds from 13 countries will make their way to the hardpack circuit of intu Xanadú in central Spain for the opening round. Just one week later, the series continues in France at the iconic Ernée circuit before heading to Teutschenthal in Germany for round three on June 12. After a busy start to the season, the series concludes at the MXGP of Czech Republic on July 16-17 with a double header event where the winner will be crowned.

At the start of each of the five rounds, around 30 young riders will take on a timed qualifying session to determine gate pick before competing in two races. When the points from each race are combined, the top three overall will celebrate their achievement by standing on the very same podium as their MXGP heroes.
