After a highly successful first edition of the FIM Intercontinental Games (ICG) in 2024, an expanded version is returning in 2027 and will be held at Kuwait Motor Town in Kuwait* from January 20-23. Expressions of interest are now being called for Team FIM Oceania.
And not only will the 2027 ICG again feature circuit racing, but the six FIM Continental Unions (CONUs) – FIM Oceania (Australia and New Zealand), FIM Africa, FIM Asia, FIM Europe, FIM Latin-America and FIM North-America – will also be testing their mettle in motocross in what’s set to be another epic event televised live around the globe via FIM-MOTO.TV.
The two circuit racing categories will again be Supersport 300 and Supersport using FIM-supplied Yamaha YZF-R3 and YZF-R7s, while motocross is joining the ICG under an MX2 format. The make and model of MX2 motorcycle is still to be announced.
The number of CONU-selected riders for both circuit racing and motocross will be four (4) per category, with composition based on the following:
- One ‘specialist rider’ who will be the CONU team captain and is permitted to be currently competing in an FIM World Championship during 2026 year as a permanent rider;
• At least one female rider for each category;
• All other selected riders may not be currently taking part in any FIM World Championship in 2026 as a permanent rider; and
• Age ranges will be per the FIM classes of each category: ie Supersport 300, Supersport and MX2.
All selected riders for Team FIM Oceania will:
- Have their travel costs covered by FIM and FIM Oceania (more details in expression of interest form);
• Be required to wear safety apparel supplied by themselves in the colours and design in accordance with the FIM-supplied guidelines. FIM Oceania will again be represented by the colour green; and
• Be supplied a Team FIM Oceania uniform at no cost, which they can keep after the event.
Expressions of interest are now open to compete for Team FIM Oceania at the 2027 ICG. Click HERE for more ICG information and the expression of interest form
Applications close at 5pm AEST on June 1, 2026, and must be emailed to [email protected].
Despite being one rider down on race day, FIM Oceania dug deep to finish third in the 2024 ICG at Jerez in Spain behind FIM Europe and FIM Asia.
*A final decision on location will be made by the FIM in the coming months
