The international motocross race “Derventa Motocross 2025” was held this weekend at the popular “Derventa” motocross site, attracting fans and riders of this adrenaline-filled sport from across the region.

This marks the seventh consecutive year that motocross competitions have been organized in Derventa, and once again, the event drew in a strong crowd and competitive lineup.

Around 40 riders from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Croatia competed in various categories, including MX65, MX85, MXA, MXV, MX1, and MX Open.

Miroslav Milojević Miron, president of the local Moto Club “Miron,” which organized the event, expressed satisfaction with the successful execution of the race.

“The preparations went smoothly. We worked hard to provide the best possible conditions for the riders, and they were very pleased. The track is more demanding than most due to its terrain and inclines. Many of the riders have competed here before and knew what to expect.
