When the starting gate drops this weekend (August 9th/10th) on the historic "Auf der Wacht" track, it's not just about important championship points – the MSC Gaildorf is also celebrating a special anniversary: ​​the club is hosting a motocross race for the 60th time. For fans, riders, and organizers, this is an emotional highlight in the calendar of the ADAC MX Masters.

Max Nagl remains in focus – but the pressure is growing

In the premier class of the weekend, the focus is once again on Max Nagl. The veteran from Dörr Motorsport Triumph Racing Team continues to lead the championship, but had to contend with a difficult weekend in Tensfeld. His pursuer Roan Van de Moosdijk therefore senses his chance to further reduce the gap in the anniversary race: "I feel well prepared – Gaildorf could be the turning point."

Who is striking among the young talents?

In the junior classes of the ADAC MX Youngster Cup, MX Junior Cup 125 and MX Junior Cup 85 the signs are also pointing towards excitement. Bradley Masters leads the youngsters, Ian Ampoorter is ahead in the 125cc class, while Lucas Leok returns after the summer break in the 85 Cup.

Important points are awarded in all classes in Gaildorf. The traditional circuit, with its compact atmosphere, is a real highlight, especially for young drivers: a tight track, short distances, and plenty of fans close to the track.

German drivers with ambitions
