Motocross star Eli Tomac is facing a significant setback just weeks before the new racing season kicks off. The reigning champion encountered a troubling injury during a recent training session, casting uncertainty on his participation in the upcoming races.
Tomac, widely celebrated for his dominant performances in the AMA Supercross and Pro Motocross series, reportedly sustained an injury to his right shoulder while practicing on a challenging track in Colorado. According to sources close to the rider, Tomac was working on refining his technique when the accident occurred, resulting in a dislocated shoulder.
Tomac’s team, Monster Energy Star Yamaha Racing, has been tight-lipped about the specifics of the injury but confirmed that the rider will undergo a series of medical evaluations to determine the extent of the damage. Team officials are optimistic about his recovery but are bracing for potential adjustments to the season’s schedule.
The injury comes at a particularly crucial time, with Tomac’s preparation for the new season at its peak. The 31-year-old had been aiming to build on his previous successes and secure another championship. Fans and fellow competitors alike are closely monitoring the situation, hoping for a swift and complete recovery.
In response to the setback, Tomac took to social media to express his frustration but also his determination to return to form. “Frustrated by the timing, but I’m focused on getting back to 100% as quickly as possible,” he wrote. “Thanks for all the support—looking forward to getting back out there.”
As the racing season approaches, the motocross community is united in its hope that Tomac will overcome this hurdle and continue to deliver the high-octane performances that have become his hallmark.
