Mips has confirmed it will continue as the Official Safety Partner of the FIM Motocross World Championship for 2026.

The Mips safety system is used across the MXGP and MX2 paddocks and is integrated into helmets at all levels of the sport. The brand also sponsors Honda HRC Petronas and four-time world champion Jorge Prado.

Mips CEO, Max Strandwitz, said: “The partnership supports our efforts to continue raising awareness on helmet safety and rotational motion by engaging with riders, teams and fans around the world. Safety should never stop advancing.”

The MXGP announcement comes shortly after a significant development for the business. In December 2025, Mips completed the acquisition of Koroyd, the Monaco-based impact protection specialist, for 40 million euros. The two technologies are complementary: Mips addresses rotational forces in a crash, while Koroyd’s honeycomb structure manages linear impact energy. Both brands will continue to operate independently, but the combination gives Mips a broader platform across helmet and body protection.
