Summary By: eMotoX
The 43rd edition of the Paris Supercross is set to take place on 21st and 22nd November at the Paris La Défense Arena, continuing its legacy as a premier year-end event in the global supercross calendar. Since its inception in 1984, the Paris Supercross has attracted top international talent, and this year will be no exception. Among the star-studded lineup is reigning US Supercross champion Ken Roczen, who will aim to join an elite group of riders who have won both the US title and the Paris event in the same year.
Ken Roczen, who secured the US championship after a remarkable 2026 season, returns to Paris as a seasoned competitor familiar with the venue, having triumphed there in 2022. His attempt to emulate past champions such as Johnny O’Mara, Jean Michel Bayle, and Jeremy McGrath highlights the event’s rich history and prestige. Alongside Roczen, notable riders like Malcolm Stewart, the defending “King of Paris,” Aaron Plessinger, and Jo Shimoda will compete, ensuring a highly competitive field. French two-time 250 SX champion Tom Vialle will also be a key figure, looking to impress his home crowd after a successful debut in the premier MXGP class.
The event will also spotlight emerging talent, with Belgian twins Lucas and Sacha Coenen making their supercross debuts. Both riders have dominated their respective MXGP and MX2 categories this season and are highly anticipated newcomers to the Paris Supercross stage. Their participation underscores the event’s tradition of providing a platform for young riders aspiring to compete in the US, adding an exciting dimension to the weekend’s racing.
Beyond the headline SX1 races, the programme will include the finals of the French SX2 and SX Junior championships, as well as freestyle competitions, offering a diverse and full schedule for fans. Organisers remain confident in the event’s status, emphasising its continuity and the calibre of participants as key factors in maintaining its global standing. With ticket sales underway, the Paris Supercross promises to deliver thrilling action and showcase the best of international supercross talent once again.
