2020 Monster Energy Supercross Series | April Injury Report & Updates

COVID-19 & MOTOCROSS | COMPLETE COVERAGE

Under normal circumstances, we’d be in Foxborough right now for round 15 of the 2020 Monster Energy Supercross Series. One of the closing rounds to the original schedule, we’d know which riders were in true contention to win the championships and even the mathematical scenarios necessary for them to clinch over their competition. But we’re not and we all know why.

With rumors that the 2020 Monster Energy Supercross Series could pick back up in May (more on that later, we’re getting a larger idea of the plan as the weekend unfolds), now is a good time to take a look at the roster of riders and highlight any injury updates or recent developments that they are currently dealing with. Just because racing is on hold doesn’t mean that the sport as a whole is, and there’ve been a few newsworthy things worth bringing up in the 250 and 450 Classes. 

Below you’ll find an entry list for the 250 West Coast Region, 250 East Coast Region, and 450 Class. The list is from the last round of the division, so Daytona for the 450 Class and 250 East Coast and San Diego for the 250 West Coast Region. And just because it’s probably been a while, the complete point standings for all three divisions are posted at the very bottom of the page.
