THERE will be a major FIM motocross event in the UK this year after all!
On Wednesday afternoon, the FIM issued a brief Press Release toannounce that the Motocross of Nations will be held in Donington Park. The event had originally been awarded to NorthernIreland, but was handed back when the government-funded NorthernIreland Events company was wound up following a sizeable overspend. The release, issued by the FIM on Wednesday, January 9, reads: 2008 FIM Red Bull Motocross of Nations The 2008 FIM Red Bull Motocross of Nations will be held in Donington Park, Great Britain, on September 28. An agreement was signed between the FIM promoter, Youthstream, and the organiser, Donington Park Leisure Limited. The title sponsor, Red Bull, was also confirmed. |
