Lawrence finished 2-1 on the day, while a crash by championship rival and brother Hunter Lawrence dramatically changed the title fight with just two rounds remaining. Hunter Lawrence entered the Unadilla National with a 12-point advantage over Jett and extended that margin early in the afternoon by winning the opening 450 moto. Jett finished second, with Jorge Prado taking third and Haiden Deegan fourth. The championship battle took a major turn in Moto 2. Hunter again started near the front and was running with the leaders before crashing while entering Unadilla's infamous Screw U section. The incident damaged his Honda and forced him to retire from the moto. With Hunter out of contention, Jett moved into the lead and held off a hard-charging Prado to secure the moto victory and his fourth overall win of the season. Prado put together a strong 3-2 score for second overall, marking his third podium of the 2026 season. Deegan rounded out the 450 podium with a 4-3 finish.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_16080\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"640\"]\"\" Cole Davies secured his fourth overall win of the season at Unadilla.
