Not 100% sure, but I think you can probably scratch South Africa from that list as well. Between covid, the recent riots, looting, political instability, lack of funds and poor exchange rates, it would take a miracle to get a team over there. Plus I think our national federation has 0 interest.

Hate to be negative but under the circumstances it shouldn't happen at all in my opinion.

I wonder how many guys are gonna opt out of the MXdN now. A guy like Gajser most likely will since there’s no way Team Slovenia could fight for a podium and he will most likely still be in the title hunt.

But what about a guy like Cairoli? Italy has a legit shot at MXdN this year. But does Cairoli chance getting hurt before the season ends?

I believe Herlings will be in if KTM lets him. It will be tough to send Febvre and Prado too.

I haven’t even begun with 250’s. Jeez this will get interesting. We are seeing now more than ever how much of a luxury it is that Team USA typically has so many legit options for the team.
No excuses, according to.some on vital. Ride for your country. Lol. Funny how double standards work.

According to GateDrop.com, Philip McCullough has left his role as Team Manager of Ireland.

"Last night, McCullough had put forward his team to be selected for this years event heading to Mantova (something a team manager should have total control over).

Since 2016 when McCullough first took on the role there’s been a five minute discussion over this proposal but it wasn’t so straight forward this year. After over half an hour there still hadn’t been an agreement so McCullough decided to hand in his resignation.

McCullough had Martin Barr and Stuart Edmonds selected for the MXGP and Open slots which were accepted but his recommendation for the MX2 slot wasn’t accepted.

As of yet there’s still officially been no team selected but Barr and Edmonds are likely to be selected leaving the MX2 rider up in the air."

Doesnt matter, you arent loyal to your country if you dont race it , no matter what according to some on vital. People lost their shit when kawy didnt want to send tomac and ac. As they prepped for their contracted sponsored race. Cant. Have it both ways. Guess some riders get a pass no matter what. Hmmm

Ireland is a funny little place. Our Team selection often comes down to politics not whos the best riders!! It would be a bit like asking all the US riders who they vote for & then picking 2 Republicans & 1 Democrat or vice versa.
Philip McCullough does an excellent job & im not surprised he has quit. If they cant support you in picking the 3 best riders then your not a team manager your a pupit!

Hopefully we get sorted soon & have a good run at Winning the B final 💪🏻

1 million dollars, i think you missed my point. All of of sudden title,$$ is worth more than riding for your county. Bottom line pick the guys who want to go and dont get upset when a rider refuses. Plenty have refused before,and it wont be the last time. I think its a great event. But they ride what the boss tells them.if they want paid.

Roczen won't be going for Germany.

“I really wanted to race,” Roczen explained. “I was ready to go and whatnot, but now after further review with Honda, it’s a little bit difficult time with the whole covid situation, with parts and all of that kind of stuff.

“Then of course the whole situation over in Europe, I just feel like there’s a lot of uncertainty. Obviously, as of right now, it’s happening but who knows if there will be any fans allowed.”

“Obviously, a lot of riders are not going to race, so I feel like the pros and cons for me, there was a lot more on the cons side for everything,” he continued. “I feel like this is such a special race that I feel like if you can’t do it all the way then [it’s a] don’t do it at all type of thing.”

As a super fan of the sport the MXoN is the best race of the year with or without team usa. Attend 2 or 3 and you will know why. That said Sexton, Webb and Hampshire can take top 5 overall. We don’t have to win. We just need to try.

Längenfelder in MX2 would be the logical choice. Or maybe Max Spies on the twostroke.

Agree, seems like Langenfelder is the obvious choice.

Glad to see some of these teams coming together, sure feels like it's taking a long time to get some announcements.

Embarrassing how Cyprus, an island with less than 1 million population, can send a team (nothing wrong with them), and Mexico with +120 Millon habitants, can't do shit, of course the Mexican Federation is at fault. We have great riders that walk the path all by themselves with no support.

This country is a joke and will remain like that unfortunately.

Would Max be allowed to ride the 250 2 Stroke in MX2? Not sure about the rules there.
I was hoping for Max Nagl to be picked. Maybe he doesn't wanna go.

The czech manager is Jiří Jankovský - ooopsie for bamboozling you before

The roster is still uncertain (unofficially there is possibility to scrap it due to the lack of funding - basically the whole budget would go towards Hostettler Yamaha for the rent of Polák's bike). My guess would be Dušan Drdaj, Petr Polák (if they make a deal - moneywise) & Filip Neugebauer

Quite some fuss about the Irish selection. Turns out former team manager McCullough resigned because of the interference of the MCUI. McCullough wanted to select Martin Barr (obviously, he's been around the selection since 2005), but the MCUI would have none of it in favor of Jake Sheridan.

McCullough's selection would've been Barr in MXGP, Meara in MX2 and Edmonds in Open.

Farrelly's (or in fact, MCUI's) selection is Meara in MXGP, Sheridan in MX2 and Edmonds in Open with McCormick as backup-rider.

Nothing against Sheridan as it's not his "fault" he's selected, but everyone knows and has seen the results of the past months in the British nationals. Aswell Barr as McCormick are clearly better and faster than Sheridan.
