Background
While Chase Sexton has always been a promising rider, the 2022 season firmly established him as a top talent in the premier class, with a very close second place in the AMA Pro Motocross series’ final standings. Known for his impeccable riding style, the Illinois native joined the Honda family early, signing with Factory Connection’s amateur squad in 2015. Two years later, he transitioned to the operation’s pro team for his professional debut, and he went on to win the 250SX East Region Championship in 2019 and 2020. Sexton was promoted to the factory Honda squad midyear, to race the CRF450RWE in AMA Pro Motocross, ending the season in dramatic fashion with his career-first 450 overall win at the series finale. He was a regular podium finisher during the 2021 season, whereas 2022 saw him take a big step outdoors, winning often and threatening for the crown. In 2023, Sexton achieved the most significant milestone of his career, securing the AMA Supercross premier-class title.
