The FIM Motocross World Championship, known as MXGP since 2014, has been the pinnacle of global motocross competition since its inception in 1957. Renowned as one of the most demanding and physically intense motorsports on the planet, the championship challenges riders across diverse terrain and extreme conditions. KTM’s deep-rooted history in MXGP dates back to the 1970s, and ever since, the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing team has been a dominant force in the sport. Since 2010, KTM machinery has powered riders to 16 MX2 World Titles aboard the KTM 250 SX-F and 8 MXGP Championships with the KTM 450 SX-F and KTM 350 SX-F. For 2026, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing lines up with a powerful five-rider squad across both MXGP and MX2 categories. Leading the charge in the premier class on the KTM 450 SX-F are Lucas Coenen and former MX2 World Champion Andrea Adamo, while 2025 MX2 World Champion Simon Längenfelder aims to defend his title alongside Sacha Coenen, both competing on the KTM 250 SX-F in MX2.

The SuperMotocross World Championship (SMX) is the premier dirt bike racing series in the United States, uniting the 17-round AMA Supercross Championship and the 11-round AMA Pro Motocross Championship under one banner. The season culminates with the SMX Playoffs and Finals in September, where the best riders from both disciplines battle for the ultimate title. From January to May, Supercross takes place inside iconic MLB and NFL stadiums across North America, featuring unique formats such as the Triple Crown. The action then moves outdoors for Pro Motocross during the summer months, showcasing the 450MX and 250MX divisions across some of the toughest natural tracks in the country. KTM’s legacy in SMX competition is defined by success, claiming eight AMA Supercross Championships — four each with the KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION and KTM 250 SX-F FACTORY EDITION — along with four AMA Pro Motocross titles across the 450 (3) and 250 (1) classes. For 2026, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing fields an elite line-up in both Supercross and Pro Motocross. Leading the team is six-time SX and MX Champion Eli Tomac, joined by four-time MXGP/MX2 World Champion Jorge Prado and Aaron Plessinger aboard the KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION. In the 250 class, 2025 250SX West runner-up Julien Beaumer will aim for the top step of the podium on the KTM 250 SX-F FACTORY EDITION.
