Federico Valentini – KTM Head of Global Marketing: “It’s fascinating that the European Junior e-Motocross Series is returning in 2022 following the success of last year. It proved to be hugely popular. And the feedback we have received has been incredibly positive. This year we will see the same racing format, which worked perfectly in 202. And gives all the riders a scarce opportunity to race on the same tracks as their MXGP heroes.
The series shows that KTM is 100% committed to both racing and our e-mobility research. And development, with many of the racers choosing the KTM SX-E 5 as their bike of choice last year. It’s not too long until the first round.And I’m sure the 2022 European Junior e-Motocross Series will be a huge success.”
