PALA, Calif. — The 2026 Pro Motocross Championship got underway Saturday at Fox Raceway, where Colt Nichols opened the outdoor season with a 19th-place overall finish after posting 20th- and 17th-place results in the day’s two motos.
“It was a humbling day,” said Colt Nichols. “I struggled to find comfort and didn’t ride as well as I needed to. I’ve got some work to do this week, and we’ll try again next weekend at Hangtown.”
“Round 1 of Pro Motocross is done and dusted,” said Team Principal Dustin Pipes. “Colt Nichols finished 19th overall. We need to work on starts and get the bike into a better window for him to achieve stronger results. We’ll go to work and shift our focus to Hangtown.”
Results Summary: Nichols finished 19th overall at Fox Raceway with moto scores of 20-17.
Next Round: Pro Motocross continues Saturday at the Hangtown Motocross Classic at Prairie City SVRA in Rancho Cordova, California.
