ST. JEAN D’ANGELY
(FRANCE), 6 June 2010 – The French round of the 2010 FIM Motocross World
Championship was the 100th Motocross Grand Prix organized by Youthstream,
which started running the FIM series in 2004 - beginning with the Grand
Prix of Flanders in Zolder, Belgium, on the March 21 weekend.


The company founded and headed by Giuseppe Luongo has taken the FIM
Motocross World Championship to its actual state through seven years of
hard work, bringing more media coverage and benefits for the partners
involved and establishing a new long term plan to globalize the series. The
plan will see the FIM Motocross World Championship start after the FIM
Supercross series ends, as this would give the top riders of these series
the possibility of racing both the FIM Motocross and Supercross World
Championships. More overseas rounds in North and South America, Asia and
Oceania will enrich the calendar of the FIM Motocross World Championship
whose partners will enjoy a more and more worldwide platform to gain
further exposure.


In this period of 100 Grand Prix’s several milestones in the history of
Motocross were established: the 10 Titles and 101 GP wins of Stefan Everts,
the arrival of the first ever 350cc machine and its first GP victory in the
MX1 class, the organization of the first ever Turkish Grand Prix in 2009,
German Roczen winning his home GP in 2009 to become the youngest GP winner
ever, the return of a Grand Prix event to USA and Brazil, Gonçalves
becoming the first ever Portuguese to win a Grand Prix in 2009 and many
more achievements making the history of the sport.


Here is the list of the 100 Motocross Grand Prix events run by Youthstream
so far.
