Guadix is the place – Rookies Cup Selection for 2024
It’s that very special time of year, no not Christmas yet, but for young racers around the world it is even bigger, it’s time for the Selection Event for the 2024 Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup.
This is the way that Brad Binder, Jorge Martín, Pedro Acosta and more than 200 other riders have made the step into the Cup. 112 Rookies Cup riders have started in GPs, 30 of whom have won 179 GPs and 10 World Championships. Currently, they lead the Moto3 and Moto2 World Championships and Martín is 3 points off the lead in MotoGP after winning the Japanese Grand Prix this weekend.
111 riders from across the globe, from 30 different nations, are expected to attend this year’s Selection event in Guadix, near Granada in southern Spain for 3 days of track action starting on Monday.
Roughly half the assembled riders take to the track on Day 1, the other half on Day 2. Those who are considered to have the best chance of being invited to join the Cup are offered the possibility of riding again on Day 3.
At the end of Day 3, the Selection Committee will draw up a list of 10 riders invited to join the Cup for 2024.
Show your support for your favourite rider by voting for them to wear the Golden Bib. It will encourage them even though it does not directly affect the outcome of the Selection. Vote here – https://www.facebook.com/groups/redbullrookiescup/permalink/24211665175113822/
