Update on FIM JuniorGP™ World Championship Technical Regulations The FIM Europe and FIM has informed about an update of the Technical Rules. Both articles are completely new, and they will be added to the complete version of the Rules 2022 shortly. So far please kindly be informed that: EFFECTIVE from Misano JuniorGP™ Round Handlebar Grips – JuniorGP™, Moto2™ ECh, and Hawkers ETC Classes It has recently been noticed that some JuniorGP™ teams have been fitting extended handlebar grips.

Accordingly, with immediate effect, the maximum permitted overall length of the handlebar grip in JuniorGP™, Moto2™ ECh and Hawkers ETC is
