2020 Supercross Calendar Launched! Las Vegas loses final round!
In addition to the preliminary 2020 Motocross World Championship calendar, the calendar for the upcoming AMA Supercross Championship was also launched yesterday. There are a lot of changes to be noted, one of which is that the outdated Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas will no longer be the setting for the final round.
This will take place in 2020 at the Rice-Eccles Stadium of the University of Utah, which is located in the state's capital Salt Lake City. As a result, the final round of the championship will be decided at more than 1400 meters above sea level. Always a challenge for both pilot and machine. Besides this “position switch” of Las Vegas and Salt Lake City, we see Saint Louis (Dome at America's Center), Tampa (Raymond James Stadium) and Foxborough (Gillette Stadium) returning to the calendar. The children of the bill are the games in Houston (NRG Stadium), Nashville (Nissan Stadium) and East Rutherford (MetLife Stadium)
