Mitigation Efforts Underway as Monster Energy Supercross Load In Continues

Monster Energy Supercross mitigation efforts are underway as load-in continues at Rice-Eccles Stadium ahead of Sunday’s race. Supercross mitigation efforts include mandated prescreening, COVID-19 testing, temperature checks, face masks, increased sanitation efforts and social distancing to limit contact among individuals executing the events. The Supercross responsible return to racing plan complies with all federal, state and local health guidelines and mandates.

 

Supercross athletes have little to no contact as riders race solo against other competitors and wear several protective elements – full-face helmets that cover the mouth, goggles, gloves, jerseys and pants that leave little to no skin exposed, plus fully secured knee-high boots.

 

Supercross returns to racing after an abrupt halt in early March after completing ten rounds of the 17-round Championship. NBC Sports will present the final seven, made-for-TV races across NBC, NBCSN & NBCSports.com. Races will also be available to domestic livestream subscribers via the NBC Sports Gold “Supercross Pass” and internationally via the Supercross Video Pass.
