Breaking News: Haiden Deegan Sidelined with Broken Collarbone at SuperMotocross World Championship Final
Las Vegas – The SuperMotocross World Championship Final ended in heartbreak for rising star Haiden Deegan, who suffered a broken left collarbone during the climactic 250SMX moto tonight.
The incident occurred in a high-stakes moment of the final race of the season, as Deegan attempted a daring block pass on championship leader Jo Shimoda. The move, intended to swing crucial points his way, quickly went awry. Both riders went down in the maneuver, but only Shimoda was able to remount and continue, leaving Deegan on the track struggling to pick up his bike.
Eyewitnesses reported that Deegan immediately pointed toward his left shoulder and arm, signaling the severity of his injury. He then walked off the track and began speaking with the Alpinestars medical team, who assisted him in removing his helmet and assessing the damage. The broadcast later confirmed the diagnosis: a broken collarbone, effectively ending Deegan’s championship hopes for the 2025 season.
Fans and fellow riders alike expressed sympathy and support for the young talent, who has been one of motocross’s most exciting and aggressive competitors this year. Deegan’s daring riding style, which had brought him close to challenging Shimoda for the title, now faces a significant pause as he begins his recovery.
Team representatives have not yet released an official statement regarding the expected timeline for Deegan’s return to competition. However, experts note that collarbone injuries of this nature typically require several weeks to months of healing, followed by rehabilitation to regain strength and mobility.
The dramatic conclusion of the 2025 SuperMotocross season underscores both the thrilling intensity and the inherent risks of the sport. While Shimoda secured his position atop the championship standings, fans will undoubtedly be hoping for a speedy and full recovery for Deegan, whose aggressive riding continues to captivate the motocross world.
