James Burfield is the founder of MECCA – the most complete motocross and supercross results database online.

For 13 years (2012–2025) he ran mxvice.com, the independent motocross news site that reached 200–400K monthly pageviews at its peak before he exited the assets. MECCA is his next act: an editorial-led, data-first archive of every MXGP, MX2, AMA Supercross, AMA Pro Motocross, SMX and WSX race result from 1952 to today.

He has covered the sport for nearly two decades and lives near the Matterley Basin circuit in Hampshire, UK.
