South Africa have confirmed their squad for the 2026 Motocross of Nations at Ernée!.
Just one change from last year’s team as Tristan Purdon comes in to join the red-hot Camden McLellan and Slade Smith.
McLellan heads to France enjoying the best season of his career with two GP wins and a genuine MX2 title challenge – can South Africa fight their way into the top 10?
There was also an attempt to have Calvin Vlaanderen represent South Africa this year, but the FIM would not approve the switch in time. A change of sporting nationality can only be made at the start of the year, so 2027 could still be a possibility.
