Monster Energy Supercross Historical Notes Package – Round 9 – Rogers Centre – Toronto, ON

Toronto’s history with Monster Energy Supercross dates back to 2004, when it was one of two Canada rounds that composed the FIM World Supercross GP, a globally recognized precursor to the regular championship schedule that consisted of 16 races.

From ’04-‘06 Toronto remained a part of the FIM World Supercross GP. In 2008 it was integrated into the normal championship schedule, which established the 17-race slate currently enjoyed today and formalized supercross as an FIM World Championship.

As a result, Canada’s most populous city holds the unique distinction of being the only international destination of Monster Energy Supercross’ current 17-race World Championship schedule, currently in its 10th season.

The Rogers Centre, originally known as SkyDome, was the first modern stadium to feature a motorized retractable roof when it opened in 1989. The iconic venue will host its 12th supercross race this season.

The first-ever supercross race in Toronto was on December 4, 2004, as part of the FIM World Supercross GP. Ricky Carmichael won on a Suzuki en route to clinching that season’s world title.

The first Toronto race as part of the formal Monster Energy Supercross schedule was March 29, 2008. Chad Reed won on a Yamaha en route to his second championship.

Last season Ken Roczen became the first rider without a championship to win in Toronto. In total, six different riders have won the 11 races inside Rogers Centre since 2004 – Carmichael, Dungey, Reed, Roczen, Stewart, and Villopoto.

In the complete history of supercross in Toronto, dating back to 2004, just three brands have claimed victory – Kawasaki, Suzuki, and Yamaha.

Things yet to be achieved in Toronto:
