MXGP’s Ring of Champions gives the 2026 title winners a permanent place in history

The concept first recognised the MXGP and MX2 World Champions before expanding to the winning riders at the Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations. WMX was added in 2022, placing the women’s world champion within the same ceremonial tradition.

That progression matters because it gives different forms of motocross success a shared historical marker. An individual world title reflects consistency over an entire campaign; an MXoN victory represents riders combining for their country. The ring gives both achievements a personal and enduring form.

Jeffrey Herlings, Guillem Farres and Daniela Guillen are the 2026 individual champions highlighted by MXGP. Their inclusion ensures that the season is remembered not only through points and trophies, but through an artefact connecting its winners to the champions who preceded them.
