Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA, is proud to announce an extensive update to its industry-leading flagship Motocross model, the new 2026 YZ450F. Faced with the complex challenge of improving on a bike already widely considered the benchmark of the ultra-competitive 450cc four-stroke class, Yamaha engineers put significant focus into refining power delivery and handling performance to achieve a level of precision, control and tuneability that sets a new class standard: the easiest bike to ride fast.

That is a wrap on the most insane, fun, stress-filled week of amateur motocross. If you have never been to Loretta Lynn’s, go. Yes, the racing is intense. Yes, it is hot. Yes, it can be stressful.
Yet… its probably the most fun week you will experience in motocross. While I spent 7 days in the beer tent, Wes, Crane, Chase, Wade, Alex and Brent were out and about producing Radio Fox, talking with folks and enjoying the week. Yet, no one had as much fun as I.
Whether you won the Horizon Award (hello, Enzo) or the Masters 50+ (hello, Gregory Pamart) you deserve to be recognized. And that is what I am doing here. I have dug through the archives, scoured Cycle News and put every champ from Loretta’s together for you to view. Congrats to all the below.
