With one door closing, multiple others are set to open, with the Lawrence brothers of Jett and Hunter set to make their World Supercross debuts for Geico Honda in 2020. Jett Lawrence is confirmed on the West Coast, however Hunter Lawrence‰Ûªs future in that regard is unclear, with either A1 or the East Coast opener inside Tampa‰Ûªs Raymond James Stadium the destination for his Supercross debut.
Recent Australian revelation Luke Clout has teamed up with Australian backed Penrite Honda Racing to take on the 250 West Coast Supercross rounds as team expands into the United States. Clout put in a phenomenal performance during the 2019 Australian Supercross Championship, where he took three time defending champ Justin Brayton all the way to the final race for the championship, which in turn gained him international notoriety.
Joining Clout on the West is his Serco Yamaha teammate from 2013, Jay Wilson, who‰Ûªs put together his own Yamaha program to compete in the mostly Californian rounds. Stalwart young privateer Joel Wightman too will make the jump over in the premier 450cc Class, whilst Serco Yamaha‰Ûªs Aaron Tanti joins Wilson and co. in the opening 250cc West rounds.
