Reigning Monster Energy Supercross champion Cooper Webb will miss the remaining rounds of Pro Motocross 2025, with a knee injury sustained during the RedBud National’s second qualifying session bringing an end to his outdoor campaign.

Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing’s Webb caught his foot in a rut during Q2, with the initial hope that it was nothing more than a stinger as he lined up for the afternoon’s motos.

A charge from last to 10th in race one resulted in 15th after running out of fuel on the final lap, before a P8 finish was a strong way to quickly rebound in moto two.

Further investigation during the week revealed damage that will require a ‘quick procedure’, leaving the number two sidelined until the finals series commencing on September 7 at Concord’s zMAX Dragway in North Carolina.

“Bummed to share that I’ll be missing the upcoming rounds of Pro Motocross,” commented Webb. “I caught my foot in a rut and pulled out of the second qualifier early at RedBud. I was in pain with my knee, but I was hopeful it was just a stinger, and I finished the day.

“I had a personal goal to make all 31 rounds this season and I’m disappointed to surrender the SMX championship lead this way. On the positive side, it’s a quick fix and recovery. I’ll get a small procedure done on Monday and should be back on the bike in around a month so that we can prepare for the opening playoff round in Charlotte.”

Webb currently sits seventh in the 450MX overall standings, with a season-high overall finish of P6 at both Hangtown and Thunder Valley Nationals. In SMX, the now three-time 450SX champion holds first position, 14 points clear of teammate Justin Cooper.
