2024 Spanish Motocross Championship

The 2024 Spanish Motocross Championship season is the 66th Spanish Motocross Championship season.[1]

The series has seven rounds across the country, running from February to October. José Butrón is the reigning champion in the Elite-MX1, after winning his ninth title in 2023.[2]

Gerard Congost is the reigning champion in the Elite-MX2 class after he won his first title in the previous season.[3]

The opening round of the series in Talavera de la Reina sees the competitive international debut of Triumph's 250cc motocross bike in the Elite-MX2 class.[4] [5]

Adverse weather conditions at the second round in Lugo meant that the entire programme was completed on Saturday rather than being spread across both days.

The full calendar with both dates and venues was released on 12 December.[1]
