The 2012 Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, schedule has just been announced by Feild Motor Sports. The 2012 schedule will hit all the usual spots, like Daytona, Anaheim, Los Angeles, and Atlanta, but the Supercross riders will also head to the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans.
Todd Jendro, senior director of two-wheel operations, Feld Motor Sports, said:
“The 2012 Monster Energy Supercross schedule is the map to the coveted championship trophy. While 2011 was the greatest season ever, it is a primer for 2012. The returning veterans and the youthful challengers are the perfect blend for a parity-driven championship.”
FIM President Vito Ippolito said:
“The 2011 season once again proved that the Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, is a real thriller. Who would have thought that heading into Las Vegas, the championship would be so close? Supercross remains an excellent showcase for FIM motor sports and it keeps the fans on their toes throughout the entire Championship. It is still the FIM’s wish to take Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, global. Still, we are pleased to see that there are once again 17 events on the 2012 calendar and we can start to count down the days separating us from the first race in Anaheim on January 7, 2012."
AMA President and CEO Rob Dingman said:
"As 2011 proved, the Monster Energy Supercross championship has always been about combining the best racers on the planet and one of the most accessible and fan-friendly stadium-based events you'll see anywhere. For 2012, we're proud to work with our promotional partner, Feld Motor Sports, to deliver the exciting racing, compelling stories and intense thrills of supercross to fans and new audiences worldwide."
