Athletes race four-at-a-time, shoulder-to-shoulder at speeds up to 40 mph, down intimidating and treacherous courses carved into urban landscapes. This year's headlines include:

- A new Women's World Championship division with female athletes competing at all four Red Bull Crashed Ice races.

Using the fastest and most agile racing planes at eight events, spanning seven countries, over three continents, pilots are challenged in a pure motor-sport competition.

- The tour visits one of the world's most famous venues for motorsport, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, for the first time ever.

- A new world champion will be crowned as defending champion and legend Paul Bonhomme retired following the 2015 campaign.

RED BULL X-FIGHTERS WORLD TOUR (www.redbullxfighters.com)

Established in 2001 and now with more than 50 events under its belt, this is the most prestigious Freestyle Motocross (FMX) series in the world. The globe's best FMX riders return for a 15th consecutive year to its spiritual home - the Las Ventas bullring in Madrid.
