سباق BMX - سباق BMX الحر

July 26, 2024 - August 11, 2024 - The 2024 summer Olympic Games, the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad, take place in Paris, France. BMX is split into two events at the Olympics. BMX racing made its debut at the 2008 Beijing Games, while BMX freestyle was introduced at Tokyo 2020.

BMX races are contested by a maximum of eight riders on a track packed with jumps, banked corners and obstacles, where the rider with the quickest reactions and fastest pace wins.

In BMX freestyle athletes ride round a course with ramps, box jumps and walls and must showcase their best tricks in two 60-second runs to qualify for the final.
