World Supercross Championships sign up for another event in Abu Dhabi

A supercross rider for World Supercross Championships in Abu Dhabi

The highly-popular World Supercross Championships return to Abu Dhabi this December

Time to start your engines people as it has just been announced that the final race of the 2024 FIM World Supercross Championship series is coming to Abu Dhabi on 4 December.

It will be a very busy time for motorsport fans in the region with the Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Formula 1 event taking place the following week.

After a highly successful pilot season in 2022, WSX built upon its foundations by expanding into new markets in 2023 – a campaign which saw German motorcycle superstar, Ken Roczen, claim a second WSX World Championship title while Britain’s Max Anstie etched his name on the SX2 World Championship crown.

Abu Dhabi first hosted WSX last season and attracted global crowds for one of the most thrilling events of 2023 which saw Roczen, Joey Savatgy, Dean Wilson, and Vince Friese go-head-to-head in a spectacular evening of racing.

With this year’s event taking place four days before the Formula One Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, the 2024 finale is set to attract an international audience once more.

Alongside confirming Abu Dhabi as the location of this season’s climax, FIM WSX also revealed its full provisional schedule for the year ahead, with the campaign due to start on 26 October at the BC Place stadium in Vancouver, Canada, before heading to Perth, Australia, on 23-24 November for a double-header event at HBF Park.

After the WSX Australian Grand Prix, the series will then head to Abu Dhabi where a World Champion will be crowned on 4 December.
