The entire 2021 Monster Energy Supercross schedule has been released, including adjustments made in the early portion of the season and venue confirmations throughout the final part of the series.

Rounds seven through nine originally scheduled for Glendale have been removed, instead replaced by a pair of races in Orlando, Florida, at Camping World Stadium for the first time in over a decade.

According to Feld Entertainment, the cause of State Farm Stadium’s absence is as a result of ‘current attendance restrictions and local health mandates’ that make planning in advance difficult, but the aim is to return to the Arizona venue from 2022.

The three previously unannounced events – rounds 13 to 15 – will take place in Atlanta at the Atlanta Motor Speedway as a triple-header, while Salt Lake City will host round 16 in addition to the championship finals. There will be no Triple Crown events in the 2021 schedule.

Next year’s opening seven rounds will now feature as 250SX West events, before 250SX East commences on from round eight. The western region restarts at round 16, before the lone 250SX Showdown will take place at the final round of the year.
