Defending Champions
SuperMotocross World Championship
#1 450SMX: Jorge Prado
Jorge Prado will run the #1 in the SMX Playoffs next year. Until then, he will be his new career number, #61 (his long-time number in MXGP), with purple backgrounds on his number plates in both Monster Energy AMA Supercross and the AMA Pro Motocross Championship.
#1 250SMX: Levi Kitchen
Like Prado, Kitchen will be #1 in the SMX Playoffs, but he will be #47 with purple backgrounds in the SX and MX races prior to the start of the playoffs.
Monster Energy AMA Supercross
#1 450SX: Ken Roczen
Roczen, who is debating on if he will race in 2027 or not, will have the #1 in supercross, then #94 in either Pro Motocross and/or the SMX Playoffs.
#1 250SX East: Cole Davies
After his first Pro Motocross title this year (a national championship), Davies picked his new career number, #5. However, he will likely not run it until the SMX Playoffs next fall, since he will be #1 in both 250SX East and 250 Pro Motocross. If Davies would switch to the 250SX West Division, then he would be #5.
#1 250SX West: Haiden Deegan
Deegan has moved to the premier class full-time and therefore will not have a #1W title defense, as he will be #38 for all of 2027.
AMA Pro Motocross Championship
#1 450 Pro Motocross: Hunter Lawrence
Hunter Lawrence will be his usual career #96 in supercross then switch to #1 for the start of Pro Motocross.
#1 250 Pro Motocross Cole Davies
No matter which coast Davies races in supercross, he will race ‘27 250 Pro Motocross as #1.
New Career Numbers and Other Number Highlights
There were three different career numbers earned this year (highlighted by ** below).
#5** Cole Davies
The 2026 AMA Pro Motocross Champion earned the right to pick a single-digit number, and since Joey Savatgy is career #17 (Davies' amateur number), Davies went with #5. The number was last ran by Ryan Dungey, who ran it for several years late in his career until his retirement in 2017. Dungey then ran #5 again in 2022 Pro Motocross when he ran the entire 12-race championship. Dungey’s hold on career #5 ended following the 2023 season, although no one had picked it until Davies did for ‘27. Cool to see a champion pick a single digit again for the first time in a handful of years (Adam Cianciarulo picking #9 for 2020 after his 2019 250 Pro Motocross title)!
#10** Ryder DiFrancesco
DiFrancesco had the ability to pick a career number for the first time following his strong 2026 year. He decided to go with #10, which is the lowest non-national championship number. The #10 was last used by Seth Hammaker this year, but last used as a career number for Justin Brayton until he retired.
#61** Jorge Prado
Following his disastrous 2025 with Kawasaki, Prado had an incredible rebound in 2026, and earned the ability to pick a career number. As we reported earlier this month, Prado decided to go with his long-time MXGP number, #61.
Look A Like/Run It Back
The following riders have earned the same national number (but not career number) more than once…
Michael Mosiman as #29
Mosiman ran #29 in 2022, and he will run it again in 2027.
Jordon Smith as #31
Smith ran #31 in 2024, and he will run it again in 2027.
Benny Bloss as #54
Bloss ran #54 in 2026, and he will run it again in 2027. He was the only rider to earn the exact same number for next year without it being a #1 or a career number. That is 11 straight years with a national number for Bloss!
