IN THE WIND P32 MOTOCROSS OF NATIONS ENTRY LIST T he entry list for the 2017 Mo- tocross of Nations has been released. The race is being held this year in the United Kingdom at Matterley Basin, October 1. There are a few obviously strong teams, such as The Netherlands with Jeffrey Herlings, Glenn Coldenhoff and Brian Bogers, and the defending champs France with Gautier Paulin, Dylan Ferrandis and Romain Febvre, but both Ferrandis and Febvre are dinged up at the moment, Ferrandis with a wrist injury and Febvre with a concus- sion suffered last weekend in Florida. Switzerland is sending a strong team with Arnaud Tonus (MXGP), Valentin Guillod (MX2), Jeremy Seewer (Open), as is Australia with Australian National Champion Dean Ferris, Hunter Lawrence (second in MX2 at the U.S. GP) and Kirk Gibbs, and Belgium with Clement Desalle, Julien Lieber and Jeremy Van Horebeek. Even Great Britain looks strong with Max Anstie, Tommy Searle and Dean Wilson. Team USA is made up of Cole Seely (MXGP), Thomas Coving- ton (Open) and Zach Osborne (MX2).

CN The Netherlands' Jeffrey Herlings and Glenn Coldenhoff, along with Brian Bogers, will return as one of the favorites to win the MX of Nations at Matterley Basin.
