There are some rumours about the Coenen brothers to move to HRC for 2026?

That is a lot of movement without Gajser having plans of his own?

                 They are afraid the Lawrence’s will put a hit on them for buying a motor home with money stolen from Jett and Hunter.

MXLarge: Is America still for next year, are you still thinking that, or do you maybe stay here a year longer. What is the latest on that?

Coenen: We just take it step by step and for now, we are racing in the Grand Prix’s, and we will see how the results will be, and we will then speak to our manager. The plan is not precise yet. We will be there for sure one day, but it isn’t precise yet, when.

If they do end up stateside in 27, that has to mean AP is out right?

Tomac, Lucas and Prado in 450 class? Sacha 250?

I can't see them letting Tomac go, unless he chooses to. And Prado is so damn impressive this year... I'd hate to be the budget guy 😂

Selfishly, that would be an unbelievable KTM 450 tent. Outdoors would be unreal

Plessinger will have to find another ride for 2027 season...

I wish them the best of luck, we haven't had a top Belgian race the US series since DeCoster raced the Trans-AMA series back on the 70's. That being said, they need to stop crashing so much. Motocross is punishing enough, but Supercross will absolutely chew you up and spit you out if you ride that ragged edge all the time.

I hope KTM doesn't do to Tomac what Yamaha did to him. Tomac had a great rebound but I can't see KTM affording the dynamic duo and Tomac & Prado unless the Coenen's were to go to the Husq side of KTM.

I would love to see them test the waters at a national or 2 this year, but if they are in championship contention in Europe it seems like it would be a foolish decision.  Sacha is still a crash machine, Lucas sure toned it down last year though, only had a couple of big ones that I recall.  Insanely talented guys.  I would think most every American motocross fan would love to see them race in the US full time, but it would be a tough loss for the GPs, especially with Febvre and Herlings likely to retire soon (and Gasjer getting up there in age as well)

Not that easy this year. The only three outdoor races that don't overlap with the MXGP schedule are Thunder Valley, Southwick and Ironman. And even those three would be right between other GPs. I doubt they would come for Ironman, because their last five weeks would like this then: GP of Netherlands > USA > Turkiye > China > Australia.

Southwick seems like the only decent option for them imo.

Having the Lawrence bros, Deegan, Tomac, Sexton, Prado and Coenen (lucas) behind the same gate in Southwick 2026 would be HUGE !

Add JH84 to the lot and that would be perfect!
