Tomac: I've Signed For Another
Racing Season
E
li Tomac isn't finished racing
yet. Monster Energy Yamaha
Racing announced that he will
return in 2024, saying he is
returning for a third season with
the Monster Energy Yamaha Star
Racing team.
Tomac's 2023 season was cut
short after rupturing his Achilles'
tendon at the penultimate Super-
cross round in Denver. Tomac's
return to full fitness is ahead
of schedule, and the multi-time
champion says he is eager to get
back on track.
"Well, first off, I'd like to say the
end of Eli Tomac racing a motor
-
cycle was not the second-to-last
round of the 2023 Supercross
season!" said Tomac. "So, with
that, I'm excited to announce that
I've signed for another racing
season with the Monster Energy
Yamaha Star Racing team.
"My recovery has been going
very well and is ahead of sched-
ule in terms of the protocol. I be-
lieve I will be back on the motor-
cycle around the six-month mark
in preparation for the 2024 rac-
ing season. The motorcycle and
team were great last season. We
were so close to the champion-
ship, but accidents happen, and
that's racing. I'm eager to get
another shot at competing for
the championship!"
"We couldn't be happier to
have Eli on board for next year,"
said Jeremy Coker, Monster
Energy Yamaha Star Racing 450
Team Manager. "It definitely
was a gut punch at Denver to
have the championship taken
away that way. We were hop-
ing that Eli would come back. I
don't think anyone would fault
him for calling it a career with
what he has accomplished, but
we're happy to see that Eli still
has that fire and can't wait to go
racing. There's definitely some
unfinished business, and we look
forward to next season!"
