Dunlop Sweeps 2024 250 MX and 450 MX Pro Motocross Champships

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA – August 26, 2024 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – The Tucker Freight Lines National at Ironman Raceway, located just outside of Indianapolis, Indiana, marked the eleventh and final round of the 2024 Pro Motocross Championship, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing. Continuing a streak that dates back to 2010, Dunlop riders once again swept both the 2024 250 MX and 450 MX Pro Motocross Championships, extending their reign to an impressive 15 consecutive years. The dominance of Dunlop was evident across the championship standings, with Dunlop riders securing the top nine positions in the premier 450 MX class and the top twenty-nine spots in the 250 MX class. With victories in all AMA Pro titles in 2024, Dunlop riders have achieved a remarkable total of 183 AMA Pro Motocross and Supercross Championships.

While the 450 title battle we were all hoping for between Chase Sexton, Jett Lawrence, and Eli Tomac didn’t quite happen due to injuries, we were still presented with a fantastic championship battle that came down to the last race. Team Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Chase Sexton just needed to beat Team Honda HRC’s Hunter Lawrence by one point in the first moto to secure the 2024 Pro Motocross Championship. The Team Dunlop Elite alum rose to the occasion and grabbed his first premier-class motocross championship!

The 250 title was wrapped up at the penultimate round in Budds Creek, Maryland. The seven-time Loretta Lynn Amateur National Champion, Haiden Deegan, started the series on a hot streak with three consecutive overall wins and secured the championship with one race remaining in the series. Haiden, on his Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing machine, consistently finished in the top three with only a few motos outside the top five. This Team Dunlop Elite alum is one to look out for in the future!
