Sexton hopes for BOUNCEBACK, Lucas Coenen moving UP to MXGP in '25? & MORE | Moto News Worldwide

Chase Sexton is aiming to reverse his fortunes from last year's SuperMotocross World Championship SMX Playoffs. In the previous season, Sexton started with the lead in the 450SMX qualifying, clinched victory at the first SMX Playoff event in North Carolina, but his performance waned, placing third in the double points second round and a disappointing tenth in the triple points finale after a crash while leading. After a tough battle with Jett Lawrence the previous summer with a lot of losses, Sexton was determined to secure the SMX title. It's confirmed that both Sacha and Lucas Coenen will join de Carli KTM in 2025, reuniting with Längenfelder. This shift will likely see the Coenen brothers spending more time in Italy, though the team has shown flexibility, as evidenced by allowing Prado to train in Belgium with Joel Smets this season. While Sacha Coenen continues in the MX2 World Championship, there's a strong possibility Lucas might transition to the MXGP class. At just 17 years old, with his 18th birthday in November, such a move would be ambitious. This development is one to watch if it comes to fruition. Slovenia is set to compete at this year's Motocross Of Nations at Matterley Basin on October 5th and 6th. They're pinning their hopes on Tim Gajser, who will race in the MXGP class and lead the team, he currently holds the MXGP World Championship lead with two rounds remaining, though his title battle with Jorge Prado is expected to be fiercely contested to the very end.
