Cobra
Introduces
All-New CX65
C
obra recently introduced its line
of 2022 minicycle motocross-
ers, and the big news is the all-new
CX65, which got its first major
upgrade since its debut in 2012.
Everything is new: suspension,
chassis, ergonomics, bodywork
and everything in between. Cobra
says the CX65 is also lighter and
has improved engine performance.
The Cobra CX50, CX50FWE,
Junior and PS models are returning
for 2022.

Suzuka 8 Hours Canceled
T
he Suzuka 8 Hours, sched-
uled to take place November
7 in Japan, has been canceled.
A new European race, the
8 Hours of Most in the Czech
Republic, has been added to the
calendar to replace the 8 Hours
of Oschersleben, initially sched-
uled to take place in May. The 8
Hours of Most, set for October
9, will be the 2021 final of the
FIM Endurance World Cham-
pionship and the FIM Endur-
ance World Cup. Points will be
increased by 150%, meaning 45
points are available for the win-
ner of the race in each class.
"An exponential increase in
the number of people infected
with Covid-19 in Japan after the
Olympic Games means that the
Japanese Government will now
not permit the Suzuka 8 Hours
to go ahead as planned," said
Jorge Viegas, Presi-
dent of the FIM. "On
behalf of the FIM I
would like to offer
a word of optimism
for the future, since
I am confident that
this flagship event will
come back stronger
than ever."

For the second year in a
row the Suzuka 8 Hours
will have to wait. It will
return in 2022.
