I’ve felt this for a long time and suggested that the British Championship shouldn’t be afraid to clash with the fly away GPs.
British Superbikes established itself “as a Brand” and has been able to exist successfully for two decades.
I’m pleased that this is being looked at sensibly with the points idea.
As a fan of British Motocross for 50 years I want two things.
1 the progress of British youngsters onto and into World Championship competition
2 A successful British Motocross Championship is pivotal to this. Both the youth and adult series doing as much as possible to promote British talent
I also think there is an opportunity to coordinate meetings between and with our European neighbours. The ADAC series, the FFM and our own other national series - why not combine to run 2-3 extra meetings.
Look at Ben Mustoe- he had 2 meetings in 6 weeks prior to the Nations . No British championship meetings, only the option of 3 fly aways costing anything from £3,000 to £12,000 if you wanted to compete in them all - minimum.
You only have to look at the entry lists of our championship, the ADAC , the Dutch Masters the FFM - there are 20-30 riders combined , all capable of riding at GPs but don’t have the opportunity to race at a proper competitive level outside of the GP arena and thus making the gap lesser when the rider steps up into the GP arena .

Could we see a 10 or even 12-round ACU British Motocross Championship in the future?
🔥 A new points rule for 2027 could help make it happen, freeing up calendar dates, opening the door to more GP stars and supporting British riders competing on the world stage!
