The German Luc Ackermann managed to be crowned champion in the FMX modality , he does it for the second time after having also won in 2019.

The final was played by the young German together with the Australian Josh Sheehan and the Japanese Taka Higashino.

In BMX, the young Englishman Kieran Reilly stood out with his debut and victory , who obtained outstanding scores from the previous qualifying rounds. Second place went to Costa Rican Kenneth Tencio, who made a small mistake in the final round that took away important points.

For the first time, the event had “airbag landings”, which eliminated the use of land on the circuit , in addition, the risk decreases for the pilots and it does not depend so much on the weather.
