Get EGGcited this Easter as the third round of the FIM Motocross World Championship will take place at the historic sand track of Valkenswaard, The Netherlands on Sunday 27th and Monday 28th where both days will be broadcasted LIVE on www.mxgp-tv.com.
This weekend in particular will be huge for Dutch fans as their motocross extraordinaire The Bullet Jeffrey Herlings will go for his 50th MX2 grand prix win, and will also strive to remain unbeaten on the circuit of Valkenswaard, the same track he won his first ever MX2 grand prix at the tender age of 15 years old, in 2010.
Because this event, the MXGP of Europe, has great potential for the Dutch riders, Jeffrey Herlings, Glenn Coldenhoff and Davy Pootjes, to name a few, to do well, there will be a lot of extra coverage from the national media and broadcasters. NOS, a channel that follows MX2 and Jeffrey Herlings in particular, will be onsite to film exclusive footage, as will Omroep Brabant. RTL will also be screening the MXGP of Europe as well as the rest of the 2016 FIM Motocross World Championship season in both MXGP and MX2.
In addition to the jaw-dropping racing we are expecting to witness, Antonio Cairoli, Jeremy Seewer and Josh Coppins will be joining Paul Malin and Lisa Leyland on the MXGP Studio Show which will be LIVE on www.MXGP-TV.com and FREE to view on Sunday 27th March at 11:30 (CET).
