World Supercross Championship (WSX) organizers have confirmed an additional group of riders for its 2026 season, with Luke Clout, Mitchell Harrison, and Jordi Tixier among those added to the line-up ahead of the opening round in Calgary on August 8.

Following the initial rider announcements – including Cooper Webb (Rick Ware Racing) and Quad Lock Honda pairing Joey Savatgy and Christian Craig – additional teams are moving to firm up their roster.

Venum Bud Racing Kawasaki has signed on both Clout and Harrison in SX1, alongside Henry Miller in SX2, while Team GSM will once again field French duo Jordi Tixier and Maxime Desprey in the premier category.

MotoConcepts Racing has retained the experienced pairing of Austin Politelli (SX1) and Ryan Breece (SX2), as Stark Racing adds Michael Hicks to SX2 alongside returning SX1 riders Vince Friese and Jorge Zaragoza.

Cody Schock and Devin Simonson complete Rick Ware Racing’s SX2 lineup, while Justin Hill joins Webb in the SX1 division. Gregory Aranda has been the sole rider named to the all-new KTM-equipped 595 Racing program operating out of Brazil.

With additional announcements still to come, the 2026 World Supercross grid is continuing to take shape ahead of the championship opener in Calgary in just over two months.
