InFront Moto Racing has announced the riders and teams participating in the 2022 Monster Energy FIM Motocross World Championship, with eight bike brands and more than thirty teams committed to the international tour. Even the most prominent units went through their share of changes in the last few weeks. Here’s a quick summary of the offseason shuffle…

Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP Team promoted Maxime Renaux to the MXGP class. The newly crowned MX2 champion will be alongside Jeremy Seewer and Glenn Coldenhoff.

Red Bull KTM Factory Racing will field just two riders in 2022, with defending titlist Jeffrey Herlings in the MXGP class and former champ Tom Vialle in MX2. The team will not fill Rene Hofer’s spot out of respect for the fallen rider, and MXGP has pulled his 711 number from use.

DeCarli Racing, a longtime partner of the KTM Group, has been rebranded as the GASGAS Factory Racing program. The team will have three riders, with Mattia Guadagnini and Simon Lagenfelder in MX2 and Jorge Prado in MXGP.

Standing Construct will now be Husqvarna’s premier unit. The independent team, which works closely with the KTM Group, will support Pauls Jonass and Brian Bogers in the MXGP class. Their title sponsors and official name will be announced in the coming weeks.

ICEOne Racing now manages Kawasaki Racing Team MXGP’s efforts. Romain Febvre and Ben Watson will be their riders on the track.

DIGA Procross KTM Racing will be active in both classes, with Thomas Kjer Olsen in MXGP and Liam Everts in MX2.

Honda 114 Motorsports has promoted Ruben Fernandez to the MXGP Class. HRC and Gariboldi Racing are said to be supporters of this effort. The team’s MX2 entry is currently TBA.
