French Sand Racing Championship

The Bud Sand Race à Magescq was added to the calendar in 2019.^[1]

Swedish group Pierce AB/24MX had been the title sponsor for a number of years. Following a downturn in trade due to COVID-19 they withdrew their sponsorship. Motocross parts and accessory manufacturer 3AS Racing took over sponsorship for the 2021 championship. Their owner, Frédéric Lemeunier, was the creator of the Berck Beach-cross.^[2]

With COVID-19 restrictions in place in France the 2020/2021 championship was cancelled.^[3]

Following disagreements between the FFM and the race organisers, the Bud Sand Race à Magescq was dropped from the championship in December 2023.^[4]

There was a fuel shortage in France in October 2022 as a result of oil refinery workers striking^[5] leading to the opening round of the CFS, the Berck Beach-Cross, to be cancelled.^[6]

A vintage category was added in 2023.^[7]
