What was for many years, the biggest off season event of the year, the Fastcross in Italy is back and back with Jeffrey Herlings!!! Back in the 1990s the Fastcross had winners like Jeremy McGrath, Stefan Everts, Sebastien Tortelli and many others and was a magnificent event with a huge crowd.

Grab your calendar and mark these dates: October 10–11. The must-see event on the second weekend of October is Fast Cross 2026. The reason is simple: this year’s edition will be the most spectacular since the event resumed in 2023.

There are plenty of new features in store for fans at the Arsago Seprio track. First and foremost is the format: the nighttime show is being phased out to make way for two days of daytime racing, where established champions will compete alongside the very young riders in the 85 and 125 classes.

A change in the schedule made necessary by logistical reasons. In fact, for 2026, the course will be extended with the return of the upper section, located within a wooded area, which will bring the track’s length to 1,250 m.

This change was also made to appeal to the World Championship riders. In fact, the participation of Jeffrey Herlings, Andrea Adamo, Mattia Guadagnini, and the Maddii Racing Honda riders has already been confirmed . This entry list, incidentally, is expected to grow gradually, thanks in part to the Fast Cross 2026’s place on the calendar.

Holding the event essentially at the end of the season—that is, immediately after the Motocross of Nations—should allow for the participation of more international riders, who will be free from contractual obligations and the competitive season.

While we wait for the full movie, the trailer already looks great. To support the Fast Cross 2026 cause, tickets are already on sale!
