The Indian Supercross Racing League (ISRL) has seen an extraordinary start to its Season 2 preparations with 89 rider registrations recorded within the first three weeks, surpassing the total sign-ups from the entire registration window of its inaugural season. All major athletes from Season 1 have returned for another run, including international figures such as Matt Moss, Jordi Tixier, and Thomas Ramette. Their renewed participation has been bolstered by the arrival of new international riders like Alexander Fedortsov from the USA, Adrien Escoffier from France, and Luke Clout from Australia. At the same time, Indian riders such as Rugved Barguje, Ikshan Shanbhag, and Sarthak Chavan, who showed promise last year, are back with clear ambitions for podium finishes.
Unlike many newer leagues that struggle to build continuity, ISRL has managed to retain its core talent while attracting fresh names. The combination of international experience and Indian ambition makes Season 2 a compelling proposition for fans and teams alike.
Eeshan Lokhande, Co-Founder, ISRL, mentioned that the fast-paced registration response is a direct result of the league’s ability to deliver on its promises from Season 1. With riders praising the quality of the tracks, organisation and atmosphere, the league has built credibility in a short span. He added that the team is aiming to push standards further and provide an even more refined experience for both athletes and spectators.
Season 2, set to begin in October and run through December, will include multiple race rounds across Indian cities and feature three competitive categories. With a rider auction on the horizon and Bollywood actor Salman Khan joining as brand ambassador, the league is poised to reach a broader mainstream audience. Backed by the Federation of Motor Sports Clubs of India (FMSCI), ISRL continues to position itself as a growing hub for professional motocross in Asia.
