Monako SX posms atcelts!

Pēc UCI publicētās informācijas, tomēr Monako paredzētais Pasaules kausa posms SX tiek atcelts!

UCI:

The UCI regrets to announce that the 5th round of the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup, presented by SWATCH, is cancelled. The event was initially planned to take place in the world famous Monaco harbour on 16 and 17 October 2010. Despite an earlier tentative approval, the authorisation to build the unique BMX Supercross track in Monaco harbour has finally been declined for this year.

The successful Supercross World Cup series however deserves a grand finale in a spectacular venue like Monaco harbour. Therefore the UCI and local organisers are still determined to host a BMX Supercross World Cup in Monaco in 2011, less than one year before the London Olympic Games. There are currently no plans for a replacement venue.

“It’s very unfortunate that we had to cancel the final round in Monaco. We put in quite an effort, together with the local promoter, to make it happen. But unfortunately the local authorities did not approve the only location suitable for the BMX Supercross track. I truly believe that Monaco is the perfect setting for a BMX Supercross World Cup, where action sports meets fashion kind-of-a-thing, and we will do our utmost to have the 2011 SX finals in Monaco,” says Johan Lindström, UCI BMX Sports Coordinator.

 

Remaining UCI BMX Supercross World Cup events schedule for 2010:

Sept 17 -18 Supercross #3 - Chula Vista, CA USA Olympic Training Center

Oct 8 - 9 Supercross #4 - Frejus, France – as part of Roc d'Azur
