SUPERCROSS FINALE The Monster Energy AMA Supercross, part of the 2025 SMX World ChampionshipTM series, season concludes this Saturday, May 10, from Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City, Utah, at 7 p.m. ET on USA Network and Peacock. Race Day Live qualifying coverage this Saturday from Salt Lake City gets underway at 1 p.m. ET followed by a pre-race show at 6:30 p.m. ET, with both exclusively on Peacock. Chase Sexton earned his sixth 450SX Class victory of the season in Denver last weekend to bring him within nine points of season leader Cooper Webb, who took second to maintain his first-place standing. Sexton, the 2023 Supercross 450SX champion, aims to get back atop the podium, while Webb looks for his third title in the premier class. In the 250 East vs. West Showdown, the 250SX East Division is incredibly close, with defending champion Tom Vialle leading by a slim margin of one point over Seth Hammaker and three points over RJ Hampshire. With a race win, Hammaker or Hampshire would clinch their first East Division title. In the 250SX West Class, Haiden Deegan won in the final two laps to clinch his first 250SX Championship; even if he scores zero points this weekend and second-place Cole Davies wins the race, Deegan owns the tiebreaker over Davies due to having more runner-up finishes over the course of the season.
