Jett and Hunter Are Ready!

Monster Energy Supercross didn’t start well for Hunter and Jett Lawrence in 2025, and then injuries cut the indoor season short for both. Hunter Lawrence says a change made during Pro Motocross helped frame rigidity. The brothers feel a lot more set for supercross this time.

“I think this year I’m in a better position and I’m a better rider, more experienced,” Hunter Lawrence said. “I feel like we’ve improved the bike a lot of things we didn’t have sorted out last year coming into supercross until like third round of outdoors, some serious stuff. So, that was good.”

“Yeah, last year I think we had 17 test days before A1, where this time we only had a couple,” Jett Lawrence said. “So, it’s a lot less hectic with testing days, but it’s a lot calmer and we’re looking forward just for the year to start, honestly, and get underway.”

Both Lawrences seemed to be in a lighter, happier spot, mentally, compared to media days last year. It helps that this time they’re not straight off of flights from Australia, with jet lag, but overall everyone appears to be in a better place.

Jett says his number-one goal for 2026 is to make it to all 31 races and avoid injury.

250 Honda HRC Progressive teammate Chance Hymas feels great following ACL surgery, and says he’s fitter than he’s ever been. He plans to race 250 West, and has made a big change to his program by moving back closer to his Idaho home, and riding at Mesquite. He will still spend some time in Florida, but reconnecting with friends and family, he thinks, can help him. He’s spent a lot of dark times in Florida after having so much downtime with injuries, and wants a reset.

“I’d say this next phase of my career is very important,” said Hymas, who will enter a contract year. “I feel like I’m at the point where it’s the decider of where I’m at for the rest of my career. But I’m really happy with where I’m at, and I’d like to stay here, so I need to go put some good results down.”
