Get ready to experience the ultimate in tire-smoking slides, white-knuckled power wheelies, and peg-grinding lean angles.
Leading the charge in the MX1 category will be Ryley Fitzpatrick aboard the race-proven KTM 450 SX-F. Fitzpatrick joins the KTM program for 2027 after returning to New Zealand from Australia.
