Not quite the same as a presentation at Anaheim Stadium for the start of Supercross as in years past, but American Honda presented Team Honda HRC’s 2021 AMA Supercross and AMA Pro Motocross season virtually this morning. Instead of A1 being the epicenter of moto industry, the first round of the 2021 AMA Supercross series is set to take place in Houston on January 16.

“I’m in a good position right now and excited to build on what we learned last year,” claimed Ken Roczen in the presentation. “I feel extremely comfortable on the all-new CRF450R and will work hard to put it on the top step in 2021.” Roczen begins his fifth year with Honda’s factory team after winning four rounds in last year’s series. 

Making his Supercross debut aboard the factory 2021 CRF450R is 2019 and 2020 250SX East Region Champion Chase Sexton, who joined the squad for last year’s AMA Pro Motocross series, performing well and winning the final round. “I learned a lot racing the 450 outdoors last year,” Sexton said. “I’m excited to take that momentum into Supercross, and I feel like I can contend for race wins and podiums.”

The factory squad has taken on the 250 effort in-house for 2021. CRF250R-mounted Australian brothers Jett and Hunter Lawrence prepared to campaign the 250SX East and West regions, respectively. “All of the hard work is paying off,” said Jett, who is beginning his second full season as an AMA pro. “Now, going into the season, I just want to be consistent and ride smart—to ride like a champion and be there for every race.”
