Part 1: The Leading Ladies of MXGP

While ‘back in the day’ sports like motocross were typically considered ‘a man’s sport’, such a statement couldn’t be further from the truth in this day and age. Today, the FIM Motocross World Championship is full of leading ladies who have taken up a role in all areas of the sport from media to mechanics, to riding and managing teams and everything else in between!

It’s exciting to see women taking centre stage and breezing through some of the toughest roles in any sport, proving that gender has no limits when it comes to getting the job done. And while there are still steps to be taken to further diversify the industry, there’s no doubt in the fact that women are well and truly making their mark and helping the sport reach new heights.

MXGP Magazine caught up with some of the leading ladies in the MXGP paddock to learn more about their background, the role they play in the industry and what is like to work in the FIM Motocross World Championship.

With so many ladies to talk to and learn about, the special feature has been split in two parts with the second part coming next month!
