Your “Paddock Show” in the Off-Season

See race machines up close, grab autographs from your idols, or simply soak in the racing atmosphere—all this was possible at INTERMOT 2024! This December in Cologne, the only “Paddock Show” of the off-season has taken place.

In Hall 7, Germany’s top international race teams from Honda, Kawasaki, BMW, Ducati, and Triumph had presented themselves to fans. The focus was on the International German Championship (IDM), but the new Twin Cup and the fiercely contested Superstock class will also be featured in Cologne.
