Quick links for MXoN this weekend

Tomorrow the Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations presented by Fiat Professional will take place at a venue that is so epic; it’s practically the godfather of motocross, Maggiora Park.

Fans are already starting to roll in and get their autographs from the riders who are just scoping out the track, the venue and the layout of the paddock. There is already a ‘feel-good’ vibe floating about, which gives us confidence that this event will be as incredible as it was last year.

There are a few things of interest this weekend; the most obvious is whether Team France will defend the crown or not, especially since there are a lot of fans skeptical over the decision to leave Marvin Musquin off the team. For European based fans that want to see Musquin ride this year, he WILL be racing for KTM at the Monster Energy SMX Riders’ Cup, which will take place inside the VELTINS-Arena, Gelsenkirchen, Germany on October 8^th.

Unfortunately Tim Gajser won’t be racing this weekend after crashing in practice at a track in Slovenia during the week. Honda have confirmed that he is okay, he is just black and blue and has been advised to rest this weekend. The good news is he will also be racing at the Monster Energy SMX Riders’ Cup.

As for everyone else, it’s hard to recall a time where the teams at the Motocross of Nations were so evenly matched. Team France (FEBVRE, PAULIN and PATUREL), Team USA (WEBB, ANDERSON and MARTIN), Team Belgium (VAN HOREBEEK, STRIJBOS and VAN DONINCK), Team Switzerland (GUILLOD, SEEWER, TONUS), Team Netherlands (HERLINGS, COLDENHOFF and BOGERS), Team Great Britain (SEARLE, SIMPSON and ANSTIE), are the most talked about podium contenders. Team Australia (FERRIS, WATERS and EVANS) are the underdogs while Team Italy (CAIROLI, BERNARDINI and CERVELIN) and Team Germany (NAGL, JACOBI and ULLRICH), have riders who are going to be spoilers in terms of the points per race.

There is so much action; you won’t want to miss it so here are the links for how you can follow the Monster Energy Motocross of Nations presented by Fiat Professional LIVE.
