Following the exciting announcement of the 2025 Tour dates and venues now comes news of the classes that will be racing and playing their part in making the Arenacross Tour one of the most exciting and exhilarating motorsport shows in the world, along with your chance to line up behind the start gate in front of thousands of fans. 

To add to the thrill of racing the Arenacross Tour, two of the AX Academy youth classes have also been added to the event schedule at the AX World Tour Finals in Abu Dhabi on April 26th. The top three Big Wheeled and Small Wheeled racers in the combined Supermini 85cc class, along with the top six in the newly formed AX Futures 125cc class after the final stop of the official ACU Arenacross British championship at Manchester’s AO Arena on Saturday 22nd February, will be rewarded with an all-expenses trip of a lifetime to race at the awesome Etihad Arena on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, along with the top 20 pro qualifiers from the AX World Tour for what is set to be a memorable and historic occasion. 

“Arenacross has always been about giving opportunities to the best youth riders to develop their skills as Arenacross / Supercross athletes, hence the reason why at every AX event since 2013, all youth academy classes have been included in the race program; an opportunity that no other indoor series in the world can claim. Motocross, Supercross and Arenacross, as sports, have never been more aligned with the skillset required to reach the top of each sport being so similar. I’m now so pleased that, together with our partners in Abu Dhabi, we are investing heavily in our Supermini 85cc and Youth 125cc riders, where they will be given the chance to not only race at the Etihad Arena, Yas Island, Abu Dhabi on 26th April, but will be crowned Arenacross World Tour Champions as the chequered flag drops in the Middle East in April” – Matt Bates, ASL / Arenacross CEO.
