AMA Pro Motocross (2026 Pro Motocross) returns after a week off, heading to RedBud National, known for its patriotic atmosphere. Held on July 4th, coinciding with America's 250th anniversary of independence, the round is expected to draw an even bigger crowd than usual.
Deliberately timing the mid-season restart to land on Independence Day is a smart bit of showmanship. Speaking as someone who's watched races like this in person, riders bring a different intensity on a special day like that. Who breaks away under the pressure of a massive crowd? Add in the fitness battle coming off a week off, and this should be a race packed with storylines.

Is RedBud National one of the especially popular venues within the series?
Envious of anyone who can watch it in person and soak in that special atmosphere.
How much the riders actually recharged during the week off should show in the results.
Curious what actual number they're projecting when they say a bigger crowd than usual.
RedBud is famous for its patriotic atmosphere, so it's a perfect match for Independence Day.
That said, atmosphere alone doesn't guarantee the actual racing will be exciting.
Holding it at RedBud right at the 250th anniversary of the founding looks set to be a historic race.
