After the strenuous deep sand of Dreetz, the riders of the ADAC MX Masters have only a few days to regenerate in order to prepare for the event on the mixed surface track of the UM Bitchoise. The 38-year-old leader Max Nagl already announced on the podium that he would focus more on regeneration instead of intensive training. He and his opponents such as Roan van de Moosdijk (NL/KTM Kosak Racing Team), Maximilian Spies (D/Becker Racing), Jere Haavisto (FIN/Schmicker Silve Racing), Jörgen-Matthias Talviku (EST/SHR Motorsports by Hartje) and Noah Ludwig (D/KTM Sarholz Racing Team) know how demanding the track is with its many ascents and descents with loose surfaces.

Of the top riders, only Tom Koch (D/KTM Sarholz Racing Team) is breaking new ground there after he did not compete last year. International riders such as Nico Greutmann (CH/MX-Academy Honda Racing), Harri Kullas (EST/Schmicker Silve Racing), Tomas Kohut (CZ/Motoprox MRA Racing Team) and Mike Gwerder (CH/HTS Racing Team) and the German pilots Nico Koch (D/Becker Racing), Peter König (D/KTM GST Berlin Racing), Max Thunecke (D/Johannes-Bikes Suzuki), Cato Nickel (D/KMP-Honda-Racing powered by DVAG), Paul Haberland (D/MX-Academy Honda Racing), Mark Scheu (D/Johannes-Bikes Suzuki) and Toni Hoffmann (D/BVZ Racing) also want to shine with top positions.
