Despite no Team USA, the Motocross of Nations delivered once again over the weekend, with Team Italy capturing the Chamberlain Trophy for the first time since 2002…. on home soil, none the less.
It was a dramatic conclusion for the career of Antonio Cairoli, who announced earlier this year that 2022 will be his last season. It is the first time in the career of Cairoli that he’s won the Motocross of Nations.
