From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2024 New Zealand Motocross Championship season was the 50th New Zealand Motocross Championship season.[1]

The series had four rounds across the country, running from early February to mid April.

Maximus Purvis was the reigning champion in the MX1 class, however, he did not defend his title due to recovering from knee surgery.[2] In the MX2 class, Cody Cooper was the reigning champion after picking up his tenth senior national title in the 2023 New Zealand Motocross Championship.[3]

At the conclusion of the season, it was Hamish Harwood who won the MX1 title.[4] This was Harwood's sixth senior national title overall and came after a season-long battle with former Motocross World Championship racer Jed Beaton. The MX2 class saw a three-way championship battle between reigning champion Cooper, Australian rider Caleb Ward and James Scott. In the end it was Scott who would take away his first senior national title by seven points over Cooper.
