Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup: Five Americans Invited To Tryout For 2025

Today at 12:57 PM

36 nations invited to Spain for the Rookies Cup Selection Event

The start of the 2025 Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup racing season is half a year away but next week sees the Selection Event for our 19th championship. Over three days at Guadix in Southern Spain, the best of the world’s aspiring road racers have the chance to show the skills that could see them invited to join the Rookies Cup in 2025.

Roughly half of the riders will be on track on Monday, the second half on Tuesday. Some will be invited to ride again on Wednesday after which the Selection Committee will draw up the list of riders invited to join the Cup for the 2025 season. 

120 teens have been invited from 36 nations around the world, from New Zealand to Denmark, Japan to Brazil, South Africa to Kyrgyzstan. The global reach of the Rookies Cup has seen 252 riders from 39 nations compete in the 224 races to date.

Over 50% of ex Rookies have gone on to Grand Prix where they have won 216 GPs and have made 656 podium appearances.

As the teenagers with Rookie aspirations head to Guadix, half a world and 13,000 kilometres away, the Indonesian Grand Prix starts in Mandalika with ex Rookies leading all 3 World Championships.
