Germany’s 2015 Motocross of Nations team will be led by MXGP World Championship star Max Nagl at Ernee, France, on 26-27 September.

Nagl, who held the MXGP red plate until he injured his ankle at the German grand prix, will ride MX1, joined by Henry Jacobi (MX2) and Dennis Ullrich (Open).

It’s expected Nagl will return to the world championship for the Mantova, Italy, round this weekend, rejoining the Red Bull IceOne Racing Husqvarna team in the lead-up to MXoN.

Absent from the team will be American-based Ken Roczen, who announced last weekend that he will instead undergo back surgery during the off-season.
