Last year’s landmark inaugural season saw two of the sport’s youngest and brightest stars cement their place in the history books. At just 17, Haiden Deegan earned Rookie of the Year and captured the 250cc World Championship while Australian sensation Jett Lawrence, at 20, became the first-ever 450cc World Champion in the premier class, also as a rookie.
Showing the world this was no fluke, Deegan and Lawrence have both been dominant in their 2024 campaigns. Deegan came in second in the Eastern Regional 250SX Class Supercross Championship and is currently leading the 250 Pro Motocross Championship. Lawrence secured the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship but recently bowed out early in the Pro Motocross Championship while third in the points standings due to injury. Lawrence is expected to make his return to racing at SuperMotocross Playoff 1 on September 7 at zMAX Dragway in Concord, NC to defend his title.
The SuperMotocross World Championship Finals, Fueled by Monster Energy will feature the best athletes in the world as the top 20 in combined Supercross and Pro Motocross points are automatically seeded into the playoff rounds. As in other sport playoffs, athletes will be competing for the sport’s ultimate World Championship title, and the prestige that comes from overcoming adversity through a 28-round, dual-discipline (indoor and outdoor) season, plus two SMX Playoffs and a Final.
The SuperMotocross World Championship is the premier off-road motorcycle racing series in the world and as such pays out more total prize money than any off-road motorcycle racing series on the planet.
