ELLENTON, Fla. (April 4, 2024) – Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Adam Cianciarulo announced today his retirement from racing following this year’s Monster Energy AMA Supercross season.

Cianciarulo put together his best 450SX Class season last year with a ninth overall in the point standings, including 12 top-10s, two top-fives, and a podium in Denver. With five races to go in the 2024 season, Cianciarulo holds 119 top-10’s in 154 SMX starts (77%). He added 78 top-fives and earned his 50^th SMX podium with a third overall at High Point last summer. His 20 career SMX wins are good for 37^th all-time: 11 250SX wins, 7 250 Motocross Class wins, 2 450 Motocross Class wins.
