A new addition has been named on the World Supercross Championship team’s roster ahead of the 2026 season, with the Brazilian 595 Racing organization becoming the eighth licensed in the series.

Based in Sao Paulo, the Guilherme Kyrillos-led effort has been on an impressive ascent through the domestic ranks in Brazil, currently fielding Frenchman Greg Aranda – a World Supercross regular – as part of its KTM-equipped domestic rider line-up.

“Joining the World Supercross Championship is a major milestone for our team and something we’ve been working towards for a long time,” said Kyrillos. “We started 595 Racing with a passion for motocross and a clear goal of creating opportunities for young Brazilian riders who didn’t always have access to the equipment or structure needed to compete.

“As the team has grown, so has our ambition. Competing at world championship level was a personal goal for me and a shared goal for the entire team, and with the work we’ve done alongside our team manager Hugo Basaula, we’re ready to take this next step.”

World Supercross director of racing, Thomas Covington, added: “595 Racing’s entry is another strong example of the championship’s global growth and its ability to provide a platform for leading teams from around the world.

“They have built a proven program in Brazil, backed by results and a clear long-term vision, and we’re pleased to welcome them to the championship as Brazil’s first representative at this level.”

Organizers of the series have outlined a six-round championship for 2026, with five events announced, while one remains TBA. Calgary will host the opener on August 8, before the balance of the season takes place during the international off-season from October onwards.
