During Friday’s ceremonies for the 2023 Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations in France, it was confirmed that Matterley Basin, located in the United Kingdom, will host the 2024 MXoN event. The 2024 FIM Motocross World Championship schedule has yet to be announced, but Infront Moto Racing confirmed the ’24 MXoN event will in fact take place in the UK.

Matterley Basin first held an FIM Motocross of Nations event in 2006, where James Stewart, Ryan Villopoto, Ivan Tedesco, and Team USA won for a second consecutive year after the U.S. claimed victory in Ernée, France, the year prior (this would be the second overall win for USA in what would become a seven-year win streak). That year in 2006, Team United Kingdom (Tommy Searle, Billy Mackenzie, and Carl Nunn) finished sixth overall.

After it was announced in September 2016 that Glen Helen Raceway in California would no longer be hosting the 2017 MXoN event, the event returned to Matterley Basin again in 2017. During that 2017 event, Gautier Paulin, Christophe Charlier, and Romain Febvre would claim the overall victory for Team France, as the UK trio of Max Anstie, Dean Wilson, and Tommy Searle would finish third overall behind France and The Netherlands.

Great Britain won the inaugural MXoN event in The Netherlands in 1947 and has won the MXoN event 16 total times. However, they last won the event in 1994 in Switzerland with Rob Herring, Paul Malin (now MXGP-TV play-by-play commentator), and Kurt Nicoll.
