Eli Tomac comment on 2025 Supercross Season on Jett Lawrence causes controversies

 

As the 2025 Supercross season approaches, the competition is heating up, and Eli Tomac isn’t shying away from declaring his intentions. The reigning champion, who has long been a dominant force in the sport, has made it clear that the rider to beat in the upcoming season is none other than Jett Lawrence.

In a candid interview, Tomac acknowledged what many have already suspected: Jett Lawrence is the rider everyone will be gunning for. “Jett is obviously the biggest target. He is the target everyone is gunning for — got to beat Jett,” Tomac said. These words echo a sentiment felt by many in the Supercross community, where Lawrence’s recent performances have solidified him as the one to watch.

For Tomac, who has dominated the sport for years, the goal is clear—take down the young Australian phenom. “It is just a toss-up between everyone else, and you just don’t

know until you go racing,” Tomac continued. Despite Lawrence’s rise to prominence, Tomac remains confident in his ability to battle for the top spot, but he knows that dethroning the reigning champion won’t be easy.

The competition in 2025 will undoubtedly be fierce, with a stacked field of riders all capable of challenging for the title. Tomac names several other riders who are expected to contend for the championship, including Cooper Webb, Chase Sexton, Hunter Lawrence, Jason Anderson, and Ken Roczen. Each of these riders has the potential to shake things up and make their own mark on the season. But for Tomac, the focus remains on Jett Lawrence, and rightly so. Lawrence has quickly become the most consistent and dominant force in the sport, earning respect from both his peers and fans alike.

As Tomac prepares for the 2025 season, his mindset is clear: he’s targeting Lawrence, but he also knows that he can’t afford to overlook the other talented riders who will be vying for the championship. “Cooper is super strong, you have Chase, you have Hunter, Jason, Kenny,” he said, highlighting just how deep the field is this year.

For Tomac, this level of competition is nothing new. Over the years, he has proven his ability to rise to the occasion, whether it’s in battling younger riders like Lawrence or going toe-to-toe with veterans. His experience and skill have made him one of the most successful Supercross riders of all time, but as he looks ahead to 2025, the challenge of taking down Lawrence is a new and exciting chapter in his illustrious career.

The rivalry between Tomac and Lawrence is set to be one of the most thrilling storylines of the upcoming season. Will the veteran Tomac, with his unmatched experience, be able to dethrone Lawrence and add another championship to his already impressive resume? Or will Jett Lawrence continue his meteoric rise and prove that the future of Supercross is already here?

Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: the 2025 Supercross season promises to be a battle for the ages.
