The Red Bull X-Fighters continue their global tour this weekend as they head to Italy for the third round of the Red Bull X-Fighters championship in Rome.
American Nate Adams holds the top spot in the series. Adams leads Andre Villa, Robbie Maddison, and Danny Torres with 165 points.
Here’s the Red Bull X-Fighters Rome preview.
The X-Fighters are starting to draw a huge crowd in Italy. Last year, the X-Fighters held their event at the Stadio Flaminio, which holds 25,000 spectators. This year they are expecting a slightly larger crowd and will be heading to the Olympic Stadium (73,000 seats).
"The stadium is awesome,” said Maddison. “It's such a huge footprint. It's a massive course. It's cool that we can circumnavigate the center and get close to all the fans, which is going to make for a really action-packed night. I'm sure we're going to get a great atmosphere. The atmosphere in Rome is just awesome. I love Rome, the ancient city. This place is putting a smile on my face. So far I'm having a lot of fun."
