2026 SuperMotocross Round 8, Daytona: How to watch, start times, schedule, TV info
· Yahoo Sports
It's time for the annual Daytona Supercross round in the middle of the city's famed Bike Week as a healthy field tackles the infield course at Daytona International Speedway for Round 8 of the SuperMotocross World Championship.
For nearly a decade, this has been Eli Tomac's house, but there have been so many twists and turns in the 2026 season that it's anyone's guess who will run well this weekend. Jett Lawrence beat Tomac in a head-to-head contest two years ago. Ken Roczen triumphed over Cooper Webb last year as both Lawrence and Tomac missed this round to injury.

And if there weren't enough unknowns already, a 95 percent chance of rain overnight between Friday and Saturday threatens to soak the course and create some interesting lines. It's safe to assume that this is one race fans will not want to miss.
Honda HRC “absolutely infuriated” by lack of penalties for red light, red cross flag violationsLars Lindstrom: “The team, Honda management, and I are absolutely infuriated that there wasn’t more done in this situation.”No one full anticipated the 250 podium last week in Arlington. A huge crash in Turn 1 opened the door for two riders who recently returned from injury to finish first and second. Fans should have a clearer picture of who will run strong in the East division after this week, but Daytona is not exactly a standard race track, so it may take a couple of rounds to get a complete snapshot.
