Nations
D
uring a press conference held
in Mantova, Italy at the 2021
Monster Energy FIM Motocross of
Nations, it was confirmed RedBud,
in Buchanan, Michigan, will host
the 2022 Motocross of Nations for
the second time in history.
Infront Moto Racing CEO David
Luongo, said, "We will be back in
RedBud for the Monster Energy
FIM Motocross of Nations. We
had a long and very committed talk
with Amy and Tim Ritchie [track
owners]. Together with AMA, MX
Sports in the U.S. and the FIM
we worked together after the last
event in 2018, it was important to
consider the coming back racing to
the USA. We are very excited to be
back there. RedBud is a fantastic
place, and it was great success
despite the weather we had last
time, we really had a lot of specta-
tors joining and we cannot wait to
be there again next year. I hope
everybody is excited as we are to
come back to the RedBud."
Organizer of Red Bud Amy
Ritchie, said, "We're so excited
to have the FIM Monster Energy
Motocross of Nations return to
RedBud! 2018 was an amazing
experience that people are still
talking about. Beyond the staff and
officials, the race teams and the
multitude of fans in attendance,
our whole community enjoyed the
culture and people it brought from
around the world. Even in extreme
conditions, it was a very special
event, and we can't wait to do it
again!"
"In spite of the conditions, 2018
turned out to be a fantastic event,"
said Tim Richie. "The only thing
that could've been better was the
weather! We're going to hope and
pray all year for a nice weekend,
but we'll be ready for '2022" the
Redo,' either way."
