Deegan Confirms 250SX West Title Defense H aiden Deegan confirmed on social media his return to the 250SX West division for the upcoming 2026 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship. Deegan recently made his 450 debut dur - ing the FIM World Supercross Champion- ship in Argentina and then again in Aus- tralia. Rumors pointed to him racing a 450 at A1, but that seems unlikely now. Fans will have to wait until round one of the 2026 AMA Pro Motocross to see Deegan go head-to-head with Jett Lawrence and the rest of the 450MX division. "That's a wrap on the Australia tour and sadly the '4faddy' [450] for a little while," Deegan said. "Time to get back on the '2faddy' [250] and get ready for SX. The plan never changed. See you out West." Deegan won his first 250SX West Su - percross Championship earlier this year before claiming another 250MX title in the AMA Pro Motocross Championship. Rac- ing in the 250SX West series allows him more time to prep the 450 for Pro Mo- tocross since the Western region starts earlier and has a longer break before the summer series. CN VOLUME ISSUE DECEMBER , P25 Haiden Deegan confirmed he'll return to A1 to defend his 250cc Western Regional Supercross title. ClubMX Announces 250SX Plans C lubMX announced which of its 250SX riders will be competing in which regions. A release from the team said, "As of today, Max Vohland and Hunter Yoder will head to the West Coast, and Coty Schock and Devin Simonson will be on the East Coast. "The plan is simple: Coty and Devin have been racing all over the world. When they return later this month, they could use a break in the action. This will allow them to do the necessary test - ing to get their race bikes situated for East Coast racing. The schedule plays in their favor, since the first 250SX East round is race-number seven. "Max and Hunter have been testing their race bikes for a while now and are anxious to get racing. Both are originally from the West Coast, making it an easy trip for them to return home. As racing starts for them in January, the first six rounds will serve as a pre - cursor to the rest of the season." CN ClubMX already revealed which of its riders will compete in which region in the 2026 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series.
