Splitting four riders across three teams to run a full six-round campaign — this is a serious deployment. Cannon finished 2nd in the rankings last year on a CRF250RWE, and how she tightens things up from here is worth watching. From what I've seen out in the field, WMX's second race being broadcast live on Peacock is huge. Once the riding gets streamed to the world, young riders have no choice but to sharpen their own entries and exits. That's exactly how racing gets faster.

4 riders across 3 teams - Honda's really serious. There used to barely be a women's category at all.

Growing the base for women is a good thing. Hope an environment forms where they can keep at it sustainably.

Only 6 rounds for WMX? Wish there were more races...

Even just more broadcast coverage is huge. Sounds like race 2 gets a live stream on Peacock.

Cannon finished 2nd in the rankings last year, huh. She's a legitimate title contender then.

Glad to see real support growing for women's motocross. Rooting for it.
