MotoAmerica Superbike Championship Opens Second Half at Mid-Ohio

The MotoAmerica Quad Lock Superbike Championship moves to the Mid‑Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio, to begin the second half of its 2026 season. The 2.4‑mile, 15‑turn road course, famed for producing tight racing, will host the next four rounds with ten races still to run.

Series leader Sean Dylan Kelly of OrangeCat Racing arrives with 172 points, holding a slim advantage over JD Beach, who is 11 points back after a double‑win weekend at Laguna Seca. South African rider Mathew Scholtz sits third, 14 points behind Kelly after a mixed weekend in California. With four events and 250 points remaining, the championship standings remain fluid and any mistake could reshuffle the leaderboard.

The move to Mid‑Ohio follows a season highlighted by close battles and shifting momentum among the top three contenders, setting the stage for a decisive finish in the series.
