Location: Various Tracks
After a successful return to the motorsports scene in 2024, the Women’s Motocross (WMX) Championship is poised to elevate its profile further in 2025 by rejoining the AMA Pro Motocross Championship circuit. This year’s series will comprise six rounds, with all motos scheduled for Fridays, providing increased visibility for female racers.
In 2024, standout competitor Lala, recovering from a neck injury, missed the first round but capitalized on the opportunity to drop two rounds due to WMX rules. Her strategic comeback included sweeping four out of the last six rounds, culminating in her champion title at just 18 years old. Lala, from Nevada, draws inspiration from pro riders including Justin Barcia, while her petite frame and aggressive riding style echo that of former champion Ashley Fiolek.
As she prepares for the 2025 season, Lala aims not only to defend her WMX title but also to secure victory at the Loretta Lynn’s Amateur National Championship. Additionally, she is set to compete in the SMX Next – Motocross program this summer, anticipated to sport her #99 but will ride the #1 machine for WMX.
