= 2022 =
For the 2022 season, Maxime made his debut in the MXGP class. He placed 4th in the final Championship standings with 1 Grand Prix win at Round 9, as well as 7 podium finishes.
He was also chosen to represent France at the MXON, alongside Dylan Ferrandis & Marvin Musquin, in the MXGP category. In the qualifying race he finished 7th, in Race 1 he finished 3rd & Race 3 he placed 1st, this was enough to give France 2nd place.

After a strong debut season in 2022, Renaux was poised as a title challenger for 2023. Renaux won round 3, but a few weeks later at the Spanish Grand Prix, he suffered a fracture in his foot. This sidelined him for a majority of the season, therefore ending his championship goals.
=2024=
Renaux competed in the opening two Grand Prix but re-aggravated his injured foot from 2023. He returned for the last four races and scored one top five.
