Slovenia was the surprise of 2025
The 2025 MXoN is still fondly remembered: Jan Pancar battled it out with Hunter Lawrence for the lead in the second race. Pancar eventually finished that race in third place behind Hunter Lawrence and Jo Shimoda, ahead of riders such as RJ Hampshire, Maxime Renaux, Kay de Wolf, Mikkel Haarup, Liam Everts and other top contenders. Tim Gajser also secured a top-three finish in the first race and came fourth in the third race. In the end, Slovenia’s solid team performance was enough for fifth place overall, marking their best result ever. This year, Slovenia will once again field the line-up of Tim Gajser (MXGP), Jan Pancar (OPEN) and Jaka Peklaj (MX2). For Tim Gajser, the race in Ernée will already be his fourth appearance at the Nations.
