Cooper Webb Trains with Star Racing Team for 2026 Outdoors
Hey everyone, Paige Turner here — BlueMoto’s eyes and ears on the track.
The gates are getting ready to drop on the 2026 AMA Pro Motocross season, and I just caught some fresh footage that every race fan needs to see. Cooper Webb is already putting in serious work outdoors, and the timing couldn’t be more interesting.
In the new training video that dropped on May 1, the three-time 450 Supercross champion is back on the dirt, ripping outdoor tracks and dialing in that natural-terrain feel. You can see him sessioning with his Star Racing teammate Justin Cooper, along with Cole Davies, Nate Thrasher, and Landen Gordon. They’re building endurance, sharpening lines, and getting those outdoor legs back under them after a long supercross season.
Here’s the big takeaway: Webb has been very open lately. In a recent appearance on the PulpMX Show, he straight-up said that 2026 will likely be his last full Pro Motocross season. He’s leaning toward a supercross-only program starting in 2027 because that’s where he feels strongest and wants to focus his career moving forward. That doesn’t mean he’s taking it easy this summer — far from it. He’s fully committed to racing the entire 2026 Nationals with Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha.
Webb turns 30 this year and comes into this outdoor season as a proven winner — three Supercross titles under his belt and that signature consistency and race smarts that make him dangerous every time the gate drops. This season he fought through a tough start in supercross but still grabbed wins, including a strong Triple Crown at Houston. Now he’s using these early May sessions to get the 2026 Yamaha YZ450F sorted and ready for the long outdoor grind.
The 2026 AMA Pro Motocross Championship kicks off May 30 at Fox Raceway and runs 11 rounds through late August. The 450 class is stacked again this year with names like Eli Tomac, Chase Sexton, Hunter Lawrence, Ken Roczen, Jason Anderson, and more. Webb knows what he’s up against, but he’s said he feels stronger and faster than ever.
This is classic Cooper — honest about where he’s at in his career, but still showing up to put in the work and give everything for one more full outdoor season. The roost is about to fly, and I’ll be right here catching every story as it happens.
Stay locked in, race fans. Gates drop soon.
