TEAM JAPAN UNVEIL THE JAPANESE NATIONAL TEAM FOR THE FIM MOTOCROSS OF NATIONS
The Motorcycle Sports Federation of Japan (MFJ), a public interest incorporated foundation, will once again dispatch the Japanese national team, ‘TEAM JAPAN’, to this year’s FIM Motocross of Nations. The Motocross of Nations is the premier international motocross team competition, organised annually by the FIM (International Motorcycling Federation), in which national teams from around the world compete.
Last year, TEAM JAPAN reached the final for the first time in nine years and finished 11th overall. Although our ace rider, Shimoda, will be absent this year, we will take on the world’s top nations with the aim of progressing directly from qualifying and finishing within the top 15 in the final.
Japan National Team:
TBC Yuki Okura (27)
TBC Kainosuke Oshiro (26)
MX2 Haruki Yokoyama (27)
* The classes in which Okura and Oshiro will compete will be announced as soon as they are finalised.
