Monster Energy AMA Supercross Set for Exciting SMX Championships
In a significant announcement during the pre-race press conference for the Monster Energy AMA Supercross season opener, the details for the inaugural Monster Energy SMX World Championship have been unveiled. This championship will feature three critical rounds, culminating in the SMX Final at Thunder Ridge Nature Area in Ridgedale, Missouri, on September 26, 2026.
The SMX Playoffs will begin with Round One at Historic Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio, on September 12, followed by Round Two at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California, on September 19. Notably, this year’s format for the playoffs will deviate from traditional speedway venues, offering a series of varying layouts that characterize the hybrid racing style.
This shift represents a strategic move to enhance competition and spectator engagement. Key stakeholders, including partnerships with Bass Pro Shops, were also highlighted in the announcements, suggesting a focus on community involvement and commercial growth in the sport.
As the season approaches, anticipation builds for the new competition format that promises to deliver dynamic racing experiences for fans and athletes alike.
