2025 provides another opportunity for federations and unions from around the world to become part of the FIM MiniGP World Series. The first global program in motorsport aimed at creating grassroots equality, it is designed to standardize MiniGP competitions from around the world under the same umbrella.
There are two classes: 160cc and 190cc. Applications to run a 190cc Series may only be made by those who have already run a 160cc Series.
There are three types of Series:
– FIM MiniGP National Series: organized by or through one FMN (national federation)
– FIM MiniGP Regional Series: organized by or through various FMNs
– FIM MiniGP Continental Series: organized by or through a CONU
Each Series must comprise five events and a total minimum of 10 races per category.
Applications should be made by national federations or CONUs (Continental Unions) and are open until the 28th of February 2025.

Once the application period closes in February, the FIM will select the Cups that will form the 2025 FIM MiniGP World Series and inform the competitions whose applications to add a 190cc Series have been accepted.
Series that have already been included in previous FIM MiniGP World Series do not need to reapply, but all Series must adhere to the 2025 conditions. They must also send their calendar to the FIM and Dorna Sports a minimum of three months before their first event.
The 2025 guide provides a comprehensive look at the regulations, conditions, equipment, technical requirements and next steps for each FMN/CONU, promoter or interested party looking to apply to become part of the FIM MiniGP World Series.
