450 OVERALL QUALIFYING RESULTS // 2026 IRONMAN NATIONAL – PRESENTED BY FXR

Presented by FXR Racing: The 450 class is set for qualifying at Ironman Raceway, where the final round of the 2026 Pro Motocross season begins with plenty on the line. Hunter Lawrence and Jett Lawrence enter the weekend separated by just one point in the championship, making every position important as they look to establish themselves early in the day. Haiden Deegan and Jorge Prado have also shown strong speed in recent rounds and will be looking to mix it up near the top of the timing board. Ironman’s steep hills, long ruts and fast downhill sections can make finding a clean lap difficult, especially as the track begins to change throughout the sessions. With the championship coming down to the final two motos, qualifying will be the first chance to see who has the speed and confidence to attack the Ironman layout.

450 OVERALL QUALIFYING RESULTS

Jorge Prado was fastest in both sessions and is looking to grab his first win of the season as the motos start.

In the second 450 qualifying session, Jett Lawrence found some extra speed and finished the session quickest, improving one position in the combined results to move into third overall. Jorge Prado, however, was able to hold onto the fastest time of the day thanks to his strong lap from the opening session. Hunter Lawrence and Prado both made late pushes in the closing laps, keeping the top of the leaderboard tight as the session came to an end. With Prado, Hunter and Jett all showing strong pace in qualifying, everything is lining up for a great afternoon of racing as the 450 class heads into the motos.

Haiden Deegan stayed consistent, and as the track gets more technical, he could perform better.

450 QUALIFYING RESULTS SESSION ONE

It was good to see Eli Tomac leading qualifying, even if it was just for a moment.

Things started fairly normally in the opening 450 qualifying session, with the usual front-runners quickly making their way toward the top of the timing board. One rider who showed some extra life early was Eli Tomac, who briefly jumped all the way into the number-one spot with a strong lap. Tomac would eventually slide back to seventh as the times continued to drop, but he was clearly on the gas and looked comfortable around the Ironman layout.

The standout of the session, however, was Jorge Prado. Prado continued to find speed as the track developed and eventually put together the quickest lap of the morning, moving himself to the top of the leaderboard ahead of the rest of the 450 field. With one qualifying session still to come and the track continuing to change, Prado has set the early benchmark. Now we will see if he can carry that speed into session two and hold onto the top spot when the final qualifying times are set.

Jett Lawrence sits fourth after the first session.
