Freecaster will be webcasting the race, as they did last year…Which means we will get to hear the crank-by-crank commentary by @DoubleAPete, with rumors of a “special guest commentator.” Well, we know Howard Cosell is…otherwise engaged…so we’ll be anxious to see who dons the headset next to Pete.

Madrid SX Track Design Released

The track design for the upcoming Madrid UCI Supercross race was posted on Vintage this morning (thanks to Carl Lein). The race is March 26-27 and features a 1000-foot track with a treacherous-looking “on & off” obstacle in the second straight. Design is the handiwork of UCI dirt dealer, and capitán of the Cat’, Mr. Tom Ritz.
