Star and the Deegans played it perfectly, using financial problems as the reason they couldn't go

this race means nothing when it comes to forecasting the 2027 Supercross season and Hayden's rookie campaign.

I teased the idea that Farrés may come back at some point, but he signed an extension with Triumph to race MXGP.

Will Hahn who made news this week after switching from the 250 race program at Star Yamaha to the 450 race program at Star

But now Will moves up preemptively for Cole's move to the 450 class in 2028.

The final major story of 2026, of course, is Eli Tomac, the six-time 450 class champion... Goodbye, legend

with Kenny, Coop, Jett, Hunter, Jorge and Hayden on the gate, he still has a slim chance

Then there is Juju, who will be competing in the Motocross of Nations on a 450cc motorcycle

Levi Kitchen · Juju Bommer

the pressure is even greater heading into 2027 when it comes to proving he is worthy of a factory ride in the 450 class. He will have to make the right decision…

The story is mostly about the risk Jorge took, abruptly turning down a contract while also financially risking his career to return home to a group that probably had some doubts

the greatest rapper of all time, Dylan Ferrandis, and Dylan Ferrandis officially ending his racing career

This guy seemed to be gaining momentum and made a valiant effort to stay injury-free, but damn, it looks like he's out again

It also depends on Mitch, who may think he should put his best guy against Cole, when in reality they should put Drew Adams, Nate Thrasher, and Nick Romano against Cole, and…

Levi will have some options whether he wins next year or not. Most likely Kawasaki will have a spot, Ducati will have a spot, and with the futures of Kenny, Hombre and…

plus Chase Sexton's decision to leave, and Tom Vialle's decision not to accept the KTM 450 offer that came before Jorge received his

Tom Vialle · Jorge Prado

The team is closing its doors, and the end of a rather sweet era is coming to an end

Maybe he's begging them for the same chance since Eli is retiring and the seat is vacant... Or maybe, just maybe, he should stay put

He returns after another surgery, with limited time to develop on his new motorcycle

I've heard that a change of ownership is possible, which would be great for the series and the entire sport that it's happening, but I've also heard that the chances of that…

So the Deegans better grab all the insight they can before Cole moves up and things get weird in the Yamaha 450 truck.

he also said point blank, "I'm trying to get a factory ride." But unfortunately for Cade, that's where the reality of his timing is rough.

Wyatt is trapped by the new age rule, which means he can't turn pro until he's 18, which gives him some time to allow riders to move out of the 250 factory…

Ken said he hasn't made his decision on returning next year yet and it leaves me feeling pretty on if he should.

but also with young riders like Kaden Maner, Landon Gordon, Kaden Dudney, and Deacon Deno all moving up this year and it's created a massive blockade.

Kaden Maner · Landen Gordon

as I said last week, when you announce your retirement ahead of time, all the focus goes towards the celebration of legacy and not on the individual moments in a race day.

And we all know Sacha is coming over next year, which will give Cole a nice little challenge in his title defense next summer.

Sacha Coenen · Cole Davies

while Malinowski will turn pro in next year's Supercross season

As far as Wei goes, I've heard possibly turning pro with BarX Husqvarna next year or staying back another season with Team Green and getting taken by another brand, and PC will…

From what I understand, Wood and Gibson will race SMX and Supercross in 2027, then move up to the pros full-time in the summer

Carson Wood · Landon Gibson

apparently Hunter hadn't yet. And there were possibly some implications on Hunter's contract based on if he got this title. Now, I'll say right up front, I have no idea if any…
