The FIM and Infront Moto Racing have confirmed that the 2029 FIM Junior Motocross World Championship will be held at TCS Racing Park near Bucharest, Romania, marking the championship’s second visit to the country.
Located approximately 35 kilometres from the Romanian capital, the hard-packed circuit previously hosted the event in 2023, attracting competitors from more than 37 nations across the 125cc, 85cc and 65cc categories.
The venue will again bring together the world’s leading junior motocross riders, with world titles contested in the 125cc and 85cc divisions alongside the 65cc World Cup.
During the championship’s previous visit in 2023, French rider Mathis Valin claimed the 125cc Junior World Championship, while Dutch rider Dani Heitink secured the 85cc title.
Latvia’s Patriks Cirulis dominated the 65cc World Cup, while Italy topped the Nations classification ahead of the Netherlands and France.
The 2023 event established TCS Racing Park as a venue capable of hosting international junior motocross competition, with organisers now confirming its return to the calendar six years later.
The FIM Junior Motocross World Championship has played a significant role in developing riders who have subsequently progressed to the highest levels of international motocross.
Former champions include Tim Gajser, Jorge Prado, Maxime Renaux, Pauls Jonass and Jago Geerts, while Jeffrey Herlings claimed the 85cc world title in 2008.
For riders competing in the 125cc, 85cc and 65cc classes, the championship provides an opportunity to represent their countries against the strongest junior competitors from around the world.
The event also exposes young riders to the demands of international competition, with a race format and atmosphere similar to a full MXGP weekend.
Before the championship returns to Romania, the 2027 edition will be staged in Pärnu, Estonia, on July 18.
The exact date and further details for the 2029 FIM Junior Motocross World Championship at TCS Racing Park are yet to be announced.
