So they announced they would shut down 14.3, but kept posting stuff after that. And now i noticed this post on IG a couple of days ago.
Has someone bought the IP and will try to keep MX Vice alive or what is going on?
The shop (Even Strokes) seems like it maybe scaling back a little?
Maybe they're gonna focus on MX Vice a bit more?
I've got no idea at all, just thinking out loud, I may be way off...
This was what was communicated a couple of weeks ago.

It's done well to last this long.
I believe it's been purchased by Arno Van Den Brink of Motocross Planet. I'm not on the inside or anything though, of course.

Yeah Motocrossplanet took over. The posts on MXvice of recent days are exact copies of what is posted on Mxplanet (translated to english obviously).
Not sure if that is going to work. Really like MXplanet for what it is (always the latest new of euro and national (dutch) racing online right away). But the quality of the content is low quality compared to what made mxvice what it used to be. Both in reporting by Lewis and others, as well as the videocontent.
Agree, i follow mxplanet too but his news normally are so short and less elavorated than mxvice previous contenta but great effort by mxplanet owner.
Hope that works ok and continúes improving.
This makes me happy, in a way. You always wonder if people appreciate that extra bit of effort.
I've had people tell me that "no one cares" and "you are just overthinking it" over the years...
It’s truly appreciated.keep it up
You're under thinking it. Of course we care.
We just don't tell you, that's all - it's Vital, after all.
I feel there is more content now available in mxgp with teams having bts footage and bunch of riders having vlogs. But in the end that is still content 'controlled' by the teams so they put out what they want to put out.
At the moment there is no English euro mxgp media that is independent and focuses on quality content. As i said i like the sites like mxplanet for providing all the lates news right away, but in the end the majority of what they post is simply press releases.
Honestly, I think I'll turn up the MXGP output on here and my Twitter to fill that gap. I learn stuff faster now than ever before.
