Husqvarna also triumphed in the new 250cc motocross world championship with Torsten Hallman winning his first world title ahead of BSA teammates Jeff Smith and Arthur Lampkin.{{cite web |url=http://www.memotocross.fr/maison/philosophie/index.php#0440929fa30b65b01 |title=1962 250cc motocross world championship race winners |publisher=memotocross.fr |accessdate=29 December 2022 }}{{cite web |url=http://www.memotocross.fr/maison/visite/index.php#0440929ca80bf3f2b |title=1962 250cc motocross world championship results |publisher=memotocross.fr |accessdate=29 December 2022 }} The Greeves factory chose not to compete in the new championship, keeping two-time European motocross champion, Dave Bickers, at home to compete in the British championship. However, Bickers did compete in the British round of the 250cc motocross World Championship, claiming the victory at the British Grand Prix. Future six-time World Champion Joël Robert makes his first World Championship appearance with a fourth place at the 250cc Swiss Grand Prix. The ČZ factory takes its first victory when factory sponsored Vlastimil Valek wins the Czechoslovakian Grand Prix, heralding a decade of dominance by the Czechoslovakian manufacturer.
