The rebranding brings together new initiatives and opportunities, aiming to raise the profile of the Australian Motocross Championship and its riders, delivering exposure for sponsors and partners, while bringing MX fans to the trackside, creating new audiences and using dynamic media as well as TV platforms for 2021.
