The 2026 Anaheim 1 Supercross<\/a> is officially here, and we are excited to see the best in the world battle for the top spot this year. With Chase Sexton going from KTM to Kawasaki, Jorge Prado going from Kawasaki to KTM, Eli Tomac going from Yamaha to KTM, and Jason Anderson from Kawasaki to Suzuki, many heavy hitters are on new machinery this season, which should make things even more interesting at the opener. We also have a newcomer to the 450 class this weekend, Austin Forkner is making his premier class debut on his Triumph TF450-X, as he plans to get his feet wet in the big boy class for the first few rounds before dropping back down to the 250SX class for the East division.<\/p>\n

Of course, the addition of Ducati has also created some major buzz, with Justin Barcia and Dylan Ferrandis representing for the newly formed Troy Lee Designs Red Bull Ducati team, things are going to be extra exciting on Saturday.<\/p>\n

JETT LAWRENCE: MISSING IN ACTION<\/p>\n

\"26<\/a>Jett was injured just three weeks before Anaheim 1. He injured his knee at Glendale last year and missed the rest of the season. So far, in his 450 career, Jett has won every Championship that he was healthy for. However, staying healthy and making it to every race is not an easy task.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Honda HRC Progressive confirmed on December 20th that Jett Lawrence fractured his right ankle\/foot in a training crash at the Dog Pound facility in Florida. The Australian underwent surgery the next day in Florida to repair a fractured talus and navicular. The recovery period is expected to be at least three months.<\/p>\n

\u201cWords can\u2019t describe how I\u2019m feeling right now,\u201d Lawrence said after the incident. \u201cThe team and I put in so much work during the offseason to improve. I keep reminding myself that we have overcome challenges before, and this is no different. I\u2019ll put the same focus into my recovery that I put into being the best athlete I can be each day. My goal is to get this ankle fully healed up and return as competitive as ever and make the 2026 season as successful as we can.\u201d<\/p>\n
