In the Motocross World Championship 2025, one stage for the teams is planned in Madonna

In the provisional calendar of the competition, the eighth stage was given to Latvia, which is scheduled for August 16-17 in Madona.

The last time the world motocross championship for teams was held in Latvia was 2019, when the championship was held for the fifth year in a row at the “Pīlādžu” motor track in Stelpe parish.

In the 2025 competition, ten stages are planned. The competition is scheduled to begin on May 3 and 4 at an as-yet-unnamed track in the Netherlands. After that, stages are planned in the Czech Republic, Great Britain, France, Poland, Belgium and Germany, where the athletes will compete on July 19 and 20 before going to Latvia. After Madonna’s stage, another competition is planned in France and Belgium, where the winners are expected to be awarded on September 20 and 21.

The season ends a week later with the Nations Cup competition on the Dutch track in Heerde.

Last season, Latvian motor sportsmen Daniels and 18-year-old Bruno Lielbārži became former world champions. They collected 401 points, trailing only the Belgians Marvin Vanluchen and Glenn Jansen, who collected 422 points. In third place with 379 points were the French athletes Kilian and Evan Prunier.

Last year, playing their first full season in the world championship, Daniel and Bruno Lielbarži took fifth place in the overall standings, but the Belgian Marvin Vanluchen with the “canter” Nicolas Mousset from France became the champions.
