Pro Motocross Season Gets Underway this Saturday at Fox Raceway in Southern California as SuperMotocross World Championship Hits Midway Point

ELLENTON, FL / MORGANTOWN WV – May 24, 2024 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – The 17-Round Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship recently concluded on Saturday, May 11 in Salt Lake City with Team Honda HRC’s Jett Lawrence winning the title and earning Rookie of the Year honors in the 450SX Class.

At just 20 years old, Lawrence had eight wins on the season and became just the third racer in history to win the Premier Class title in his rookie season. Adding to the Australian’s growing list of accolades, Lawrence was the first-ever racer to win his debut Supercross race in the Premier Class back in January at the season opener from Angel Stadium of Anaheim in Anaheim, Calif. Lawrence also joined James Stewart in becoming only the second athlete in history to win every championship available to him in his young career (currently seven).

Like the 450SX Class Championship, both the Eastern and Western Regional 250SX Class Championships also came down to the final race of the season – the Dave Coombs Sr. East/West Showdown that featured both regions racing together. Red Bull KTM’s Tom Vialle won the Eastern Regional Championship over Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing’s Haiden Deegan and Rockstar Energy Husqvarna’s RJ Hampshire won the Western Regional Championship over Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki’s Levi Kitchen after going into the final race tied in points.
