With 13 FIM World Championship races being hosted in the UK by the ACU in 2026 — including this coming weekend’s Sidecarcross at Canada Heights — we would like to remind all riders and teams of the latest FIM technical regulations.
From 2026, FIM homologated helmets with a valid FRHPhe-02 label will be mandatory in all championships (excluding Trial, pedelec, SSV and selected Land Speed World Record categories).
Riders must also wear certified chest and back protectors:
✔️ Back Protector – EN 1621-2 Level 1 or 2
✔️ Chest Protector – EN 1621-3 Level 1 or 2
Please note that any modifications to protectors will invalidate certification and the equipment will not be accepted.
We encourage all riders to check their equipment now to ensure it complies with the latest FIM regulations ahead of the season and upcoming events. 🏁
