Kornel Nemeth #82 - MX1: Kornél is the most experienced member of the team, this is his sixth MXoN. The most international Hungarian rider had been competing in the FIM MX1 World Championship and in 2006 he won the B-final of the Motocross of Nations. In 2010 he was second at the Canadian Motocross Championship and last year he was the rookie of the Superenduro World Championship. Kory is 30, but he is as strong and fast as a teenager, what he demonstrated at the ADAC MX Masters series this season! A few weeks ago he won his 18th Hungarian Championship.

Gabor Firtosvari #83 - MX2: It is the first time he is part of the Hungarian National Team at the Motocross of Nations. The 18-year-old gained precious points at the European Championship and he used to be a front-rank competitor when he was a minicross rider. This year he was more competitive than ever at the National Championship and he had exciting battles with Bence Szvoboda for the first place in their category. Gábor, nicknamed Ducky, is the second best Hungarian MX2 rider. In 2013 he proved he is one of the most talented Hungarian motocross riders.

Bence Szvoboda #84 - Open: Here comes Hungary’s shining star; Bence, who is the most promising motocross rider in his country, is only 21 year old, but he already has 7 Hungarian National Championship trophies at home. This year he competed in Germany at the ADAC MX Masters and the National Czech Championship. Two years ago he reached his career’s greatest success at Teutschenthal, when he gained his first MX2 World Championship points. This is the second time he represents Hungary at the MXoN, his first appearance was in 2009. Now he is stronger than ever and he is looking forward to showing the world his God-given talent.
