MXGP of Hong Kong cancelled
By Team TMX on 5th Apr 19
The 2019 FIM Motocross World Championship is now one round shorter after Youthstream announced that the MXGP of Hong Kong round is cancelled.
Youthstream says the organiser of the Hong Kong round would like to refocus on entering the championship in March 2020.
Due to the timing of the Hong Kong cancellation, no replacement will be arranged.
Top riders will likely welcome the news as they will now have two weeks free of MXGP action before taking on the final motocross event of 2019, the Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations.

REVO Husqvarna explain why they withdrew Dylan Walsh from Valkenswaard Grand Prix
Feeling confident following its strong showing at Matterley Basin last weekend, REVO Husqvarna UK headed to Valkenswaard for the MXGP of the Netherlands, round three of the FIM Motocross World Championship.
Opinion: As MX weekends go Matterley Basin was pretty much perfect!
Other than quadrupling the amount of homegrown winners somehow, I don’t think it would have been possible to make the British Motocross Grand Prix any better than it actually was.
