The 2026 SuperMotocross World Championship heads to Arlington, Texas, for Round 7 this weekend. Eli Tomac leads the 450 class standings after three wins, but no rider has dominated the season so far. In the 250 class, a new winner will emerge as the 250 East riders take the stage for the first time. All the action will be streamed live on Peacock.

Why it matters

The Arlington round could prove pivotal in determining the 450 and 250 class champions, as riders look to gain an advantage heading into the second half of the season. With no clear dominant force in either class, the competition remains wide open.

The details

Last week in Seattle, Eli Tomac became the first rider to score three victories in the 2026 SuperMotocross World Championship, but he will not have the red plate this weekend. In the 250 class, Jo Shimoda, Jalek Swoll, Seth Hammaker, Nate Thrasher, and Cole Davies will headline the 250 East riders making their debut.

  • The 2026 SuperMotocross season is more than a third of the way through the 17-round calendar.
