Junior world championship scrapped

The 2020 FIM Junior Motocross World Championship, originally scheduled to take place on the 8th – 9th of August in Megalopolis, Greece, will not be taking place this year.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the global restrictions put in place for safety reasons, many of the 2020 events have been forced to be rescheduled to a later date, says the organisers.

Regarding the FIM 85cc and 125cc Junior Motocross World Championships and the FIM 65cc Junior Motocross World Cup organised for young riders from all over the world, the event could not be rescheduled beyond the end of August, as many of the riders aged between 10-17 years old will be back at school / college, and it was considered that their education remains the absolute priority.
