The Supermoto of Nations, the national team world championship of supermoto, will be held September 26-27 in St. Wendel, Germany. Italy's team roster (including Maria Azzurra) has also been announced, with preparations underway for a contest where national pride is on the line.
Supermoto is a concentration of technique, taming both pavement grip and dirt slide on a single course. And with a nations format, riders carry something different on their shoulders, so the riding takes on real intensity. Sliding the rear entering a corner, then wide open on the next straight - that switch between finesse and aggression is a joy to watch. Germany in September - this is bound to be a hot one.

Since it's a minor sport, I honestly can't quite predict how much buzz it'll get in Japan.
St. Wendel in Germany isn't a name I recognize—what's the course actually like there?
I'm curious which countries besides Italy will end up fielding teams too.
International competitions like this usually see teams from France or Spain named among the top contenders too.
A nations-cup format for supermoto is a rare setup, so it should draw a lot of attention.
A nations-versus-nations supermoto championship—there's no way this doesn't get people fired up.
With national pride on the line, everyone's seriousness ramps up, so it should be twice as thrilling to watch.
