The 2026 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship is headed for a dramatic finale after Hunter Lawrence delivered a statement win Saturday night at Empower Field at Mile High in Round 16 of the Monster Energy SMX World Championship.
Jorge Prado grabbed the holeshot aboard his KTM, with Lawrence close behind and hometown hero Eli Tomac returning from injury. Lawrence never looked back, crossing the finish line 13.2 seconds clear of Ken Roczen for his fifth victory of the season. Only one point now separates Roczen and Lawrence entering the finale, with Roczen still holding the narrow edge.
Even with the 250SMX West title already secured, Haiden Deegan continued his historic season with another dominant performance. With the championship already wrapped up, Deegan now heads to Salt Lake City for the East/West Showdown, where he’ll look to cap one of the most dominant 250 campaigns in recent memory.
