Motocross History

There has not been a great deal of historical research about motocross. Most motorcycle historians accept that motocross originated somewhere in France.

Motocross was originally called scrambling in the UK.

The earliest motorcycles were little more than bicycles with small internal combustion engines attached. The most common types of events were track races, endurance trials, and hill climbs.

During the 1930s, motorcycle racing became enormously popular in Great Britain.

In the late 1960's, the European masters of motocross began to export their talents and technology to North America.

Today, the AMA U.S. Motocross and Supercross Championships are the nation's best-attended motorsport on dirt.

The white flag

In all championships which use the FIA International Sporting Code, the white flag indicates the presence of an official car in the circuit when covered by the marshalling post. Beginning in 2007, Champ Car will use the white flag in accordance with FIA International Sporting Code. Previously, the white flag was used to indicate the start of the final lap.

In the IRL and NASCAR, a white flag displayed from the starter's tower indicates the start of the last lap for all the competitors.
