Interview with Feld Motor Sports' Todd Jendro on the Making of the new Monster Energy Cup in Las Vegas

After announcing the Monster Energy Cup last month, Todd Jendro, senior director of two-wheel operations for Feld Motor Sports, and his team has turned their attention to building this one-of-a-kind race that offers $1 Million. Jendro promises that this race will be a completely unique mega event on October 15 inside Las Vegas Sam Boyd Stadium.

After the announcement in Vegas that the inaugural Monster Energy Cup was coming to Sam Boyd Stadium on October 15, what are the next steps to put the event together?

Todd Jendro: Right now we are full steam ahead on the production of this newly created event. The beauty of the Monster Energy Cup is that we are not bound by anything and we had a clean piece of paper to start with. We just met with Sam Boyd Stadium facility on June 3rd to discuss logistics and operational possibilities as well as walking through the event with our counterparts at the venue. Most of the details have been finalized, it's now about developing the on-site structure and plan. That is our immediate goal right now. We are also in the midst of confirming the world's best riders at the moment.

What is the purse structure?
