Australia's sending six riders across three classes to the FIM Junior Motocross World Championship. It's a stage where young talent collides with their generation's global best. Getting tempered here is what builds future pros. I'm a technical guy, so I'll say it flat out: anyone who's fought a world event at this age comes out with a fundamentally different eye for reading the track surface. A weekend to look forward to.

International experience for the younger generation matters since it feeds into producing top riders down the road.

Australia's motocross development level is high, so there's reason for optimism.
