The 2026 FIM Motocross World Championship is gearing up for its third round in Frauenfeld, Switzerland, presented by IXS, on March 28th and 29th. Fans and teams are preparing for a return to the Schollenholz circuit, marking the first true hard-pack grassland test of the season, according to Superbike News. The event promises intense competition across multiple classes, and here’s a breakdown of the schedule and entry lists.
MXGP Class: Riders to Watch in Frauenfeld
The MXGP class is set to feature a competitive field of riders battling for supremacy. Official entry lists, as released by Infront Moto Racing, detail the athletes preparing to tackle the challenging Swiss terrain. The Schollenholz circuit has a rich history, having hosted a 125cc Grand Prix as early as 1981, won by the late Eric Geboers, as noted by Superbike News. More recently, Jeffrey Herlings has dominated at this venue, securing back-to-back MXGP wins in 2017 and 2018.
However, the 2025 event saw a clean sweep for Red Bull KTM Factory Racing, with Lucas Coenen claiming his first MXGP victory with a perfect 1-1 score. The 2026 event will be a key indicator of whether Coenen can maintain that momentum as he enters the weekend as the Championship leader, holding an eight-point advantage over Herlings and Tom Vialle, according to Superbike News.
MX2 Class: Rising Stars Take Center Stage
The MX2 class is always a hotbed of emerging talent, and the MXGP of Switzerland is no exception. The entry list showcases a mix of seasoned competitors and promising newcomers. Simon Längenfelder, the reigning MX2 champion, will undoubtedly be a rider to watch as he looks to build on his 2025 title. Like Coenen in MXGP, Längenfelder also secured a 1-1 victory at the 2025 Swiss round, delighting fans.
Supporting Classes: EMX250 and EMX125
The MXGP of Switzerland isn’t just about the premier classes. The EMX250 and EMX125 categories provide a platform for young riders to showcase their skills and gain valuable experience. Full entry lists for both classes are available, offering a glimpse into the future stars of motocross.
