Former 450SX champion Jason Anderson will reunite with Suzuki for 2026, confirmed to have signed with Pipes Motorsports Group (PMG) as part of Twisted Tea Suzuki for the upcoming World Supercross Championship and 2026 Monster Energy SMX World Championship.

The arrival marks a new chapter in the 32-year-old’s professional career – which began with Rockstar Suzuki in 2011 – after spending the first seven years in the 450 division with Husqvarna and earning the 2018 Monster Energy Supercross crown together.

Anderson then made a high-profile switch to Monster Energy Kawasaki in 2022, claiming seven 450SX main event victories and second overall in the 450SX standings during their first season together.

Following a turbulent 2025 campaign marred by illness, he now shifts to the Twisted Tea Suzuki presented by Progressive Insurance operation, and is set to contest the entire 2025 World Supercross series on an RM-Z 450 beginning at the Buenos Aires GP on November 8.

“I’m super-excited to be back on yellow,” explained Anderson. “My first experience with factory support I ever had was from Suzuki in 2003, so 23 years later it’s pretty cool to be with them at the top level of the sport.”

Team principal Dustin Pipes added: “Everyone at the team is excited to have Jason onboard starting at the Buenos Aires World Supercross event. Getting the opportunity to bring a former Supercross champion to the team is one we don’t take lightly, and we feel like the environment and structure of the team will bring the best out of Jason. We’re very excited to see what we can accomplish together.”

The addition of Anderson further bolsters Suzuki’s return to the heights of SMX competition, after the team announced last week the re-signing of two-time 450MX champion Ken Roczen for the 2026 season.
