Welcome to Racerhead, coming to you on the eve of the final round of the 2025 Monster Energy Supercross Championship. Two riders—Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing’s Cooper Webb and Red Bull KTM’s Chase Sexton—will settle this title fight tomorrow night. If Webb maintains his lead (he’s nine points ahead), he will win his third 450SX Championship, which will put him in some very rare air.

Welcome to Racerhead for what’s been an extremely busy week around the office. Monster Energy AMA Supercross has come to town, or at least as close as it’s ever going to get to Morgantown, West Virginia, as Pittsburgh hosts tomorrow night’s race in Acrisure Stadium (formerly Heinz Field), home of the Steelers.

Main image by Mitch KendraHappy Easter, everyone, and welcome to Racerhead, coming to you on Good Friday from the Lower East Side of New York City. Monster Energy AMA Supercross notches Round 14 tomorrow at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, just across the Hudson River. The weather is looking good for the first time on this northeastern leg of the series, and let’s hope that continues for next weekend’s return to Pittsburgh for the first time since 1983.

Welcome to Racerhead, and here we go again! The rinse-and-repeat continues into another weekend of Monster Energy AMA Supercross, as once again it's under the threat of some rainy weather. This time, it's Philadelphia that is in the eye of a weather system, and once again, the SMX Track Crew and Feld Entertainment field ops are already working to do their best to prepare the track that hopefully drains, which is what we saw in Seattle two weeks ago.

Welcome to another Friday, another Racerhead and another round of Monster Energy AMA Supercross that is threatened by weather. The series is near Boston at Gillette Stadium, which, like Lumen Field in Seattle last weekend, is an open-air venue without a roof. The same week of rainy weather that greeted everyone in Seattle went with the big rigs across the northern highways of the country to Boston. But if we get a rinse-and-repeat of last week’s race, we’re good—really good.

Welcome to Racerhead, and welcome to weather challenges in Seattle. Monster Energy AMA Supercross is out in the Pacific Northwest, where it's pretty much been raining all week. The SMX Track Crew has been on rain-footing all week, getting about 85 percent of the track built on Tuesday, then finished Wednesday morning, and the track's been covered in plastic ever since. They also made several tweaks to the original design, taking a few of the end zone lanes out to make it all more manageable.

There have been some developments in the ongoing dispute between the Lawrence brothers, Hunter and Jett, and their former agent Lucas Mirtl. You may recall that the Lawrences, who both ride for the Honda HRC Progressive team, summarily fired Mirtl as their agent in January, claiming “we became aware of and in possession of evidence of misuse and misappropriation of our personal funds by our agent Lucas Mirtl for his benefit…”Here's that story.

Welcome to Racerhead and the first—and only—off-weekend of Monster Energy AMA Supercross since the series started back on January 11. It’s been an entertaining, well-watched and well-attended series so far, but the injuries have been a frequent dark cloud. Next week the series returns to Birmingham, Alabama, site of last year’s strangest supercross moment, the 30-second board girl’s first-lap frightening brush with the leaders. I imagine there will be extra warnings to the girls next Saturday.
