The 2026 AMA Supercross season kicked off at Anaheim and Eli Tomac let his intentions be known. Riding for the first time with a new team and a new machine, Tomac took the win on his Red Bull KTM Factory Racing KTM 450 SX-F Factory Edition with teammate Jorge Prado in third. Tomac was at the front during the heats but kept his powder dry, not concerned at being second in Heat 1. A confident Tomac earned a direct transfer into the main event and hit the reset button. In the main event, he was out of the gate and in control from start to finish, never really looking like being caught. Easing off in the closing stages, he still had time to just keep it clean and tidy. Eli Tomac:“ This one feels good! Leading from the get-go like that is tough, because you need to really maintain focus the whole time, but my motorcycle was the best it was all day in the Main Event after a slight adjustment from the Heat Race. We went in the right direction, and this is the perfect way to start a new season and with my new team in Red Bull KTM Factory Racing. After a big off-season with both myself and the team testing and developing all over the place, it means a lot to achieve this early success together.”
