2025 AMA Pro Motocross Championship Preview
This weekend marks a significant moment in the 2025 AMA Pro Motocross Championship as Jorge Prado, a two-time FIM Motocross World Championship MXGP titleholder, makes his U.S. debut after a shoulder injury and subsequent surgery. Prado’s transition from the MXGP to the AMA Pro series is eagerly anticipated, despite limited preparation time due to his recent surgery.
Chase Sexton, energized after narrowly missing the supercross championship, will also be in the spotlight aboard his Red Bull KTM. He aims to leverage his competitive edge and redeem himself by securing victories at the Nationals. This weekend not only showcases the clash between Prado and the reigning AMA champion Sexton but also sets the stage for a high-stakes rivalry throughout the season.
In addition, Jett Lawrence returns to full competition following two injury-riddled seasons. After a thumb injury last year and an ACL tear in supercross, Lawrence is determined to reclaim his form. With a perfect season in 2023 behind him, he enters this year under the weight of expectations but is poised to excel.
Eli Tomac, also back from injury after a broken fibula sidelined him for most of the supercross season, is set to compete at Fox Raceway. Known for his remarkable recovery abilities, Tomac’s return adds another layer of intrigue to the championship landscape.
As the gates drop, all eyes will be on these contenders as they navigate a challenging season ahead in the AMA Pro Motocross Championship.
