Nicolás España Motodrome in Mexico makes good progress

The official in charge of inspecting the tracks for the Motocross World Championship, Greg Atkis, spent the last week of January visiting the facilities of the Nicolás España Motodrome, the venue for the fourth round of the MX World Championship, located in Tlajomulco de Zúñiga, Jalisco.

The first visit seems to have gone well. The initial impressions were positive: the size and type of soil were considered adequate, which is a credit to the organization running the track, X Riders. However, there is still a lot of work ahead, such as the water tanks for irrigation, the lighting, the distribution of power, and the closed-circuit television system. First and foremost, though, will be cleaning the track and its surroundings.

Work is underway on the design of the pit lane, and a safety recommendation from Greg has also been taken into account, so safety in that area will be increased to avoid any problems. So if all these new developments and changes go ahead, we will undoubtedly see a spectacular Motocross World Championship round on May 12-13.

Nicolás’s statements:

We have a lot of work to do. Greg made some changes that will improve the track layout, and since the date was confirmed last year we haven’t stopped working, and we will keep going to make this the greatest motorcycling event in Mexican history.
