New Zealand and Great Britain are the latest countries to reveal their teams for the 2019 Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations (MXoN) at Assen, The Netherlands, on 28-29 November.

New Zealand will field an incredibly youthful team in an effort to develop the nation’s future stars, which will see world championship regular Dylan Walsh (Revo Husqvarna) take on the MX2 category, as Wyatt Chase (Honda Racing) and MX Nationals MXD challenger Maximus Purvis (WBR Yamaha) fulfill the MXGP and Open positions respectively.

Team Great Britain initially announced Max Anstie (Standing Construct KTM), Ben Watson (Monster Energy Kemea Yamaha MX2 Official) and Shaun Simpson (RFX KTM) in MXGP, MX2 and Open, however an injury cloud as swept the team as both Anstie and Watson were hospitalised at Imola’s grand prix last weekend.

Watson, who suffered a broken radius, has already confirmed he’ll withdraw from the MXoN, while Anstie’s position is still surrounded with doubt. Team Australia is still yet to make its three-rider squad public.
