The 2026 FIM Motocross World Championship will resume this weekend. The MXGP championship leader, Lucas Coenen, will arrive at LaCapelle Marival in the wake of some thrilling news: he will race three rounds of the Pro Motocross series (on his off weekends). Lucas, joined by twin Sacha, will be present at Thunder Valley, Southwick and Ironman.

Hosts of the 'MXGP Podcast Show' on Vital MX, Lewis Phillips and Adam Wheeler, react to the unlikely news and its wider impact in this episode. There is more to unpack; the state of MXGP ahead of round six, a return to France's historic LaCapelle Marival, EMX250's history, question marks and the role of a team manager. There's plenty to ponder ahead of a return to on-track action (at long last).
