The 2025 Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations (MXoN) has been confirmed for Ironman Raceway, marking the prestigious international event’s return to the United States for next year between October 3-5.

In a special press conference at Matterley Basin this afternoon on the eve of this weekend’s edition, Infront Moto Racing CEO David Luongo, along with MX Sports president Davey Coombs, officially announced a collaboration to host the event.

“We are in a historical moment with this press conference,” Luongo stated. “We are very proud as Infront to collaborate in the future with MX Sports to work together and to go back to the US for the next Monster Energy Motocross of Nations at the beautiful Ironman track.

“This event is part of a common project to work more and more together, and I think, in the world of motocross, we are the best experts of what we do on both sides of the ocean for many decades now, so to do an event together will bring motocross to another level on this kind of track. It will be nice to come back to the US and I think we will be there more often in the future.”

Coombs was joined in the press conference by MX Sports event director Tim Cotter and Crawfordsville Mayor Todd Barton, with near 20 staff from the company that operates that American AMA Pro Motocross Championship in attendance this weekend.

Ironman will be the first time that the Coombs family has held an MXoN event, with RedBud most recently playing host to the Nations in 2022 and 2018. Prior to that, MXoN was staged at Thunder Valley in 2010 and also Budds Creek in 2007. The only other time it had visited the United States was back in 1987 at Unadilla.
