Supercross meets Motocross. The top riders from both seasons collide in a three-round playoff to crown the SuperMotocross World Champion. One title. One champion. Everything on the line.
The SuperMotocross (SMX) Playoffs are the final championship of the season — a hybrid format that blends Supercross and Motocross into three high-stakes rounds. Riders earn seeding points from their SX and MX season finishes, then race three playoff events with combined point totals deciding the SMX World Champion.
Each SMX Playoff round features two motos per class — similar to Pro Motocross, but on hybrid tracks that blend stadium-style obstacles with outdoor terrain. Both motos are 20 minutes plus 2 laps. The combined results from all three rounds determine the champion.
Riders are seeded based on combined points from the 17-round Supercross season and the 11-round Pro Motocross season. The top 22 in each class (450 and 250) qualify automatically. Seeds determine gate pick for each playoff round.
SMX Playoff points are enhanced — race wins are worth more than in the regular season, creating high stakes for every position. The rider with the most points across all three rounds is crowned the SMX World Champion.
Peacock streams every SMX Playoff round live and on demand. NBC and USA Network carry select rounds. Race Day Live qualifying coverage begins hours before the first moto drops.
The SuperMotocross Video Pass at supermotocross.com is the official international streaming service, covering all SMX Playoff rounds live and on demand worldwide.
