Comcast’s Peacock to Stream SuperMotocross Round 27 from Budds Creek

The SuperMotocross World Championship heads to Mechanicsville, Maryland this weekend for Round 27, which serves as the 10th round of the Pro Motocross season. The event at Budds Creek MX Park is set for Saturday, August 22, with streaming coverage provided exclusively by Comcast Corporation’s Peacock platform.

Viewers can tune in to Race Day Live for qualification coverage starting at 10 a.m. ET. The main feature program will follow at 1 p.m. ET on Peacock. In addition to the digital streaming, linear television coverage on NBC Sports will begin at 3:30 p.m. ET, featuring three live motos. This includes Moto 2 of the Women’s Pro Motocross (WMX) series, followed by the second motos of the 250 and 450 men’s divisions.

On the track, the championship battles are tightening following a violent crash by Hunter Lawrence in New York. His competitor, Jett Lawrence, is battling a foot and ankle injury but maintains a lead in the series. With only four motos remaining, Hunter Lawrence faces a difficult mathematical path to the title, though Jett’s physical condition may leave the door open for a comeback. Meanwhile, Jorge Prado is positioned as a potential spoiler if he can navigate traffic effectively.

In the 250 class, the margin is even slimmer. Levi Kitchen holds a one-point advantage, placing a premium on mistake-free racing for the final rounds. The entire 31-round schedule of the 2026 season is available across NBC, USA Network, Peacock, and NBC Sports digital platforms.

Comcast Corporation, the parent company of NBCUniversal and Peacock, trades in the Communication Services sector. Shares of CMCSA were last up approximately 0.75% in the session. The company’s media assets play a central role in distributing the SuperMotocross series to a global audience.
