Here’s a short teaser video for the upcoming Motocross of Nations at Red Bud, Michigan, on the weekend of October 6-7.
The biggest motocross race in the world is just two weeks away and the biggest team line-ups have been chosen.
This pinnacle of motocross racing will bring the best riders from around the world to the United States where Team USA will look to reclaim the Chamberlain Trophy that has eluded them for the past several years. With Eli Tomac, Justin Barcia and Aaron Plessinger, the American team is as strong as ever, but will face a stiff challenge from the Europeans in particular.
With the Dutch line-up of Jeffrey Herlings, Glenn Coldenhoff and Calvin Vlaanderen, the defending French team of Gautier Paulin, Romain Febvre and Dylan Ferrandis, Germany’s trio of Ken Roczen, Max Nagl and Henry Jacobi, or the Kiwis comprising Cody Cooper, Rhys Carter and Hamish Harwood, among many others, the level of competition will be unmatched.
More than 30 teams have been entered into the weekend, all of them looking to bring glory to their nation.
