Designed to unify and standardize MiniGP competitions from around the world under the same umbrella, the FIM MiniGP World Series aims to create an equal platform for young riders worldwide and increase their skill and opportunity.
Federations and CONUs (continental unions) can now apply to be part of the 2022 series. Applications are open until the 28th of February 2022.
There are three types of Cup:

In 2022, each series but must comprise a minimum of five events (in 2021 it was four) and 10 races (previously eight).
As for the first year of the series, parties must send their applications for the 2022 season to the FIM, via an application form that the FIM will provide to each national/continental federation.
Once the application period is over, the FIM will select the Cups that will form the second FIM MiniGP World Series. The inaugural series in 2021 comprises 11 Cups:
