The gate hasn’t even dropped yet, but the tension is already at championship level. 🔥
The 2026 Pro Motocross season officially begins this weekend at Fox Raceway, and if today’s press conference proved anything, it’s that this summer is shaping up to be one of the most explosive in recent memory.
Jett Lawrence is back from injury and embracing the spotlight, openly welcoming the growing rivalry with Haiden Deegan. Meanwhile, Deegan isn’t backing down for a second, calling himself “unbreakable” and embracing the pressure of being the rookie everyone expects to challenge the reigning king. The hype is no longer just social media talk — it’s becoming the storyline of the entire sport.
But the battle doesn’t stop there.
Chase Sexton arrives determined to erase the memories of a disappointing Supercross campaign, while Eli Tomac reminds everyone why he remains one of the most dangerous names on the gate. Add in former MXGP world champion Jorge Prado, who says he’s feeling stronger than ever on the bike, and suddenly the 450 class looks stacked from front to back.
In the 250 division, riders like Chance Hymas, Julien Beaumer, Levi Kitchen, and Cole Davies are all entering the season with something to prove, setting the stage for an all-out war before the championship has even begun.
The champions are defending, the veterans are hunting, the rookies are fearless, and the rivalries are already boiling over.
Saturday can’t come soon enough. 🏁🔥
