Jo Shimoda Will be on the Track for the Opening Round of the 2026 East Division
After some speculation and inside info that it was very likely that Jo Shimoda would make the start of the 2026 East Region in Monster Energy Supercross, Team Honda HRC Progressive has now confirmed that it is true. After announcing his initial timeline as being closer to Pro Motocross, Shimoda's commitment to his rehab program has left him able to make the start of his originally scheduled SX series. As a reminder, Shimoda is the 2025 250 SuperMotocross World Champion and, even with minimal prep time, will likely factor in the championship for the 250 East Division.
