Bobby Hewitt recently stepped down as Team Principal for Triumph Racing, creating a major leadership void as the team prepares for the 2025 season. Under Hewitt’s guidance, Triumph established itself in its debut year with notable achievements, including a heat race win in 250SX and a Pro Motocross podium finish with Jalek Swoll. Now, rumors are swirling that Jeremy Coker, one of the most respected managers in motocross, could be stepping in to take over. Coker’s tenure at Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha was marked by exceptional success, highlighted by Dylan Ferrandis’ Pro Motocross 450 Championship.
Industry insider Steve Matthes added fuel to the speculation with his comment, “FYI- Jeremy Coker has left Star Yamaha for Triumph. Interesting to see what Star does for 450 team manager.” If the rumors prove true, Coker’s appointment would signal Triumph’s determination to make an even bigger impact in 2025, leveraging his extensive experience and proven track record to elevate the team’s performance
