This morning, MXGP cancelled the EMX250 and EMX Open European Championships scheduled for April 30 through May 1 in Orlyonok, Russia, due to concerns about the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Should that situation improve, the FIM will nominate another host GP to replace the cancelled EMX250/EMXOpen weekend.
We also cant see the FIM SidecarCross World Championships round and the FIM Speedway Grand Prix round scheduled for June 26, 2022, in Bucha-Kyiv, Ukraine on the agenda.
The FIM Speedway Grand Prix round set for July 9, 2022, in Togliatti, Russia, are also not present on the agenda.
