Monster Energy AMA Supercross, Feld Entertainment, and Fox Sports confirmed the 2018 television schedule for the championship on Friday.

Perhaps the most exciting winter racing series across the United States is the Monster Energy AMA Supercross championship. Racing in major stadiums from Major League Baseball and the National Football League, the high-flying two-wheelers always put on a spectacular show for all of their fans, both in attendance and watching at home. On Friday, promoters Feld Entertainment and broadcaster Fox Sports unveiled the 2018 television schedule for the series.

The seventeen-race Monster Energy AMA Supercross season in 2018 will once again be seen across FOX and FS1. Fifteen races will be seen on the all-sports FS1 network, while two races will air live on the FOX Broadcast network. Fifteen of the seventeen races will be shown live on the two networks, with only races in Atlanta and Minneapolis, being shown on a delay. Both races will be shown on the day they ran, later that evening on FS1.

Race coverage on Fox Sports in 2018 will once again be led by the team of Ralph Sheheen, Jeff Emig, Ricky Carmichael, and Jenny Taft. Kaitlyn Vincie will also substitute for Taft in the pits for conflicting events with soccer or college sports. Carmichael will likely remain as a track-level analyst throughout most 2018 races.
