WAnyone who knows its history knows that the GelreDome was the battleground of the Supercross World Championship in 2003. Thirteen years later, this is happening again, this time pilots will fight for points in the European Supercross Championship

The 'largest theater in the Netherlands', as the GelreDome in Arnhem is still called, will be equipped with a beautiful supercross track. A track that we only see in the largest European supercross events and in America. And on that track, action is assured with a probability bordering on certainty!

This with a list of participants that is full of big names. Highlights on the bill are Malcolm Stewart (250 AMA SX2016 East Champion), Romain Febvre (2015 MXGP World Champion) and Tim Gasjer (2 MX2015 World Champion & 2016 MXGP World Champion). These gentlemen will face opposition from a whole host of European supercross elite such as Loic Rombaut, Matteo Bonini, Dominique Thury, Nick Kouwenberg, Jack Brunnel, ...

In addition to the supercross class, there is also an SX250 class, including Mike Kras, Nolan Cordens, Filippo Zonta, Kade Tinkler and Julien Lebeau, and also an SX125 and SX85 class. You can still register, by the way. We are already happy with the return of supercross to the GelreDome!
