Jorge Prado – His way to the podium in A1

Angel Stadium. The place that inspired me to turn my life upside down. The place where I made one of the craziest decisions of my career: leaving MXGP behind to chase the dream of becoming a Supercross racer. I was just 15 years old the first time I ever saw a Supercross race. And it was right here.

But Angel Stadium also brings back darker memories. Last year, a heavy crash left me with a broken shoulder and forced me to step away from racing.

Almost a year after my last Supercross race, it was finally time to come back — to create new memories and start a new chapter. A1 was waiting, and after a strong off-season and with fresh new colors, I was ready to see what this night had for me. The day started strong with P6 in timed practice. I grabbed both holeshots in the heat race and the main event, took the heat race win, and finished the night with my first-ever AMA Supercross podium — in just my 7th Supercross race. From dreams… to setbacks… to redemption.

This is only the beginning.
