MotoOnline Australia Podcast

There was a bunch to discuss following Friday's press activities in Auckland, where a largely international contingent took to the track among the Boost Mobile AUSX regulars at North Harbour Stadium. MotoOnline's Nic Still and Alex Gobert share their take from today in our latest Express podcast.

Boost Mobile AUSX Supercross arrives in New Zealand for Auckland's second event of the 2026 season this weekend, which will double as round one of the Australian championship – complete with the addition of high-profile wildcards Ken Roczen and Cole Davies. MotoOnline's Nic Still and Alex Gobert preview the upcoming weekend in our latest MXtoday podcast.

One of the more experienced personalities in the Boost Mobile AUSX paddock is Brett Metcalfe, the longtime international racer guiding Joe Rascal Racing into the sport as team principal through 2026, utilising Ducati Desmo450 MX machinery as part of a dealer-operated team with direct support from Ducati Melbourne. MotoOnline took the opportunity to learn more about the unique project directly following Townsville's opening round of the supercross season for this latest In Brief podcast.

There has been a lot of movement in the Australian motocross landscape over the course of the past few months, firstly with AUSX Supercross taking on its boldest expansion phase yet, and now with Williams Event Management once again formally named as the incoming commercial rights-holder of the outdoors beginning in 2027. MotoOnline's Nic Still and Alex Gobert take a deep-dive into the quickly-evolving turn of events in our latest MXtoday podcast.

Saturday night saw the 2026 Boost Mobile AUSX Supercross Championship take off in Townsville, with the on-track action lighting up Queensland Country Bank Stadium – and it wasn't without its share of drama at round one. MotoOnline's Nic Still and Alex Gobert revisit the opener in this FLY Racing Recap podcast. For complete information on FLY Racing, visit the brand online or learn more at your local retailer.

Bikes have turned laps (kind of!) during press day at Queensland Country Bank Stadium, the press conference had its share of talking points, and the vibe is quickly building ahead of the 2026 Boost Mobile AUSX Supercross Championship opener in North Queensland. MotoOnline's Alex Gobert and Nic Still come to you direct from Townsville tonight in our latest Express podcast.

The gates will drop on the 2026 Boost Mobile AUSX Supercross Championship this Saturday night in Townsville, opening what is shaping up to be a defining year of expansion for the Australian series. MotoOnline's Nic Still and Alex Gobert look ahead to the upcoming five-round title-chase in this MXtoday season preview.

The upcoming 2026 Monster Energy Motocross of Nations (MXoN) marks an important milestone in the story of Craig Dack. For the first time, the Monster Energy CDR Yamaha team has both of its riders – Jed Beaton and Aaron Tanti – representing Team Australia, while 40 years have passed since Dack made his own MXoN debut as a rider at Maggiora in 1986. MotoOnline's Nic Still caught up with Dack for this latest In Brief podcast to preview the occasion and discuss a whole lot more.

Team Australia has been named for MXoN 2026, we're slowly learning more about the teams that will make up the AUSX season this year, and we have a fair bit to say about why we should be seeing more of the top Australians in Darwin for the MXGP finale. MotoOnline's Nic Still and Alex Gobert open the conversations that matter most in our MXtoday podcast.

A full decade after winning the national MX2 title and off the back of a standout international career, Jed Beaton finally managed to clinch his first Australian MX1 championship in 2026 with Monster Energy CDR Yamaha. MotoOnline's Trent Maher spoke to Beaton directly on an assortment of topics following QMP's finale for our latest In Brief podcast.
