The 2026 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship heads to NRG Stadium in Houston this weekend for Round 4, featuring the season’s first Triple Crown event. The format includes three shorter main events, placing a premium on consistency, strong starts, and mistake-free riding.
With the championship still wide open after Anaheim 2, Houston’s tight and technical layout is expected to play a key role in shaping early title momentum in both the 450SX and 250SX West classes.
