MAGGIORA BACK ON THE WORLD STAGE
.... nine year deal from 2013
| 05.02.2012 |
|---|
Youthstream have signed a nine year deal with Schava SRL to bring the classic Maggiora track in northern Italy back to the world motocross scene. The deal envisages an annual world event from 2013 on, with the track which saw the US whitewash the world in 1986 to host the Motocross des Nations again in 2016 and 2021.
"For us it's a dream come true," declared Youthstream president Giuseppe Luongo. "I have a special attachment to Maggiora because, aside from organising many major events there such as GPs and the Masters of Motocross, I was the organiser of the well-known MXoN in 1986 in Maggiora, which was won by the American Dream Team; this event is still considered the greatest MX event in history. At that time I was the organiser and promoter of the event together with the local club and FMI at only 26 years old."

| ANAHEIM DOUBLE FOR VILLOPOTO | 05.02.2012 |
|---|
Ryan Villopoto completed the Anaheim double to take over the red plate in the AMA SX series. On a track with two sand sections and a tough set of whoops James Stewart shook off a big get-off in the heat to chase the defending champion home and confirm his role as number one challenger while Chad Reed completed the podium and Ryan Dungey was once again 4th. With Dean Wilson off the podium, Eli Tomac moved relentlessly clear in the Lites points after another runaway. Max Anstie qualified 10th but failed to make the Main.

| HOT AND COLD IN HELSINKI | 04.02.2012 |
|---|
It was minus 13 outside, but the action was hot in the hall as supercross hit Finland last night with the opening night of the Helsinki Supercross. Shock winner was Jurgen Wybo on the Rabbit Racing Kawasaki though the Belgian was a class act on the track rendered rutted and tatty as the frozen earth thawed out; Jurgen won his heat, only lost out late on in his semi to Kimi Raikkonen runner Dean Ferris, and ran down Florent Richier in the Main even before the Frenchman made a late error in the difficult going. Wybo's teammate Jack Brunell was consistent all night to place fourth behind Fabien Izoird. The can catch a taste of the action, with pretty much the same cast which will race at Herning in Denmark next weekend by clicking http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKobvtv1N8c&feature
