There’s no place like the top of the world, and that’s exactly where Jorge Prado sits right now. In his fourth try at winning the FIM Motocross World Championship in the MXGP class, the 22-year-old Spaniard was finally able to break through in 2023 to claim the crown. Yet no sooner had that crown been placed atop his head than Prado found himself far away from MXGP and in another world altogether, pounding out laps on a supercross track in Southern California as he contemplated the first big decision of his reign: Jorge Prado might be moving to America.
