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 (age 20) became the first-ever 450cc World Champion in the premier class, also as a rookie.
The SuperMotocross World Championship Playoffs and Final will feature the best athletes in the world as the top 20 in combined Supercross and Pro Motocross points will be automatically seeded into the playoff rounds. The final two gate positions will be determined through a Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ) featuring athletes positioned 21 – 30 in combined points, plus any Supercross Main Event winners and Pro Motocross Overall Winners. The SuperMotocross World Championship Playoff races and Final will operate under a two-moto format for both the 450cc class and 250cc class. Each moto will be 20 minutes, plus one lap, in which Olympic Scoring will determine an overall finishing position for which SuperMotocross Championship points will be awarded.
The SMX World Championship series pays the sport’s largest prize payout of $10 million - $4.5 million is awarded throughout the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship and Pro Motocross Championship, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing, leaving $5.5 million to be earned through the SMX World Championship Finals, fueled by Monster Energy.
The SuperMotocross World Championship will culminate with the World Championship Final on Saturday, September 21 at the The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. “The Strip” is one of the most iconic dragstrips in the country and joins zMAX Dragway as being one of just two dragstrips in the nation to feature four-wide racing. This expansive footprint will allow our master track builders to get very imaginative in creating the final SMX World Championship track of the season. Situated right across the street from the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the Strip is home to more than 50 events a year and provides an intimate viewing experience from the grandstands and suites while also offering fans the ability to “line the fence”, similar to what is done at a Pro Motocross event.
Fans can expect a two-day experience at all three rounds as each track will offer a Friday Fan Zone and a Saturday FanFest experience. Friday’s Fan Zone will be open from 11:00 AM - 6:00 PM and offers fans the chance to see the teams prepare and practice for Saturday’s World Championship race. Hear the riders’ pre-race thoughts at the live press conference and check out the main stage entertainment. Beat the crowds and have more time to meet top riders like Jett Lawrence, Haiden Deegan, Cooper Webb and others. Plus, experience interactive games and photo opportunities, sample Monster Energy drinks, purchase exclusive SMX World Championship gear and more.
