2022 MXGP Schedule Updated: July 5, 2022
MXGP will take another shot at a “normal” season, with a 19-round schedule for 2022, though dates and venues continue to be shuffled. The 2022 MXGP World Championship Series schedule begins on February 27 at Matterley Basin in Winchester (weather delayed it a week) and concludes on September 10 at Mussanah in Oman. The Russian round on May 1 has been canceled due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The Motocross of Nations will be held at RedBud MX in North Buchanan, Michigan. The latest change is the cancellation of the MXGP of Jakarta, with Infront Moto Racing saying, “Despite the best efforts by the local organizer, it has not been possible to secure the proper running of the event for this year.”
Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Jeffrey Herlings will be defending his title against Kawasaki Racing Team MXGP’s Romain Febvre and Team HRC’s Tim Gajser. The trio battled it out for the last year’s championship down to the final round, with Jeremy Seewer, Jorge Prado, and the now-retired Tony Cairoli trailing in the distance.
For 2022, MXGP is offering the VIP Gold Skybox pass for a first-class experience at most of the races. The VIP Gold Skybox pass includes admission to the event with a Gold Skybox Car Parking Pass, paddock access, seating in the Skybox Terrace behind the starting gate, and dining at the VIP Gold Skybox Restaurant. Weekend VIP Gold Skybox passes are €400 for adults and €200 for children aged 3 to 11. VIP Gold Camping is available for €150 for the weekend.
