MXGP 2026 3 2026-03-28 2026-03-28 https://r2.thesportsdb.com/images/media/event/thumb/kd5yju1776013274.jpg https://r2.thesportsdb.com/images/media/event/poster/uelxuy1776013269.jpg The FIM Motocross World Championship moves to the hard-pack Schollenholz circuit in Frauenfeld for Round 3 of the 2026 season. The primary challenge for the premier class is the technical nature of the Swiss grasslands, which have been made even more unpredictable by freezing temperatures and intermittent drizzle leading up to the event. The objective for the "Bullet," Jeffrey Herlings, is to secure his first qualifying points of the season and close the gap on the championship leader, Lucas Coenen, who has dominated the early rounds. Strategically, the 20-minute plus two-lap qualifying heat is a critical test of traction management on a slick surface. The goal for the riders is to secure a top gate pick for Sunday’s Grand Prix motos, where track position is traditionally paramount in Frauenfeld. The tactical focus for Tim Gajser and Romain Febvre remains on finding the smoothest lines through the technical rhythm sections to minimize mistakes in the greasy conditions. With local hero Jeremy Seewer looking to perform in front of his home fans, the ultimate goal for the elite field is to survive the elements and establish a strong starting position for the main races. 2420469
