Daytona International Speedway has once again teamed up with supercross legend and five-time Daytona Supercross By Honda winner Ricky Carmichael for the 10th year to design the challenging course for the high-flying event on Saturday night, March 11.

The most noticeable change to the 2017 design is the return of the starting gate to the east side of the tri-oval.

“It is so gruelling,” Carmichael said of the course. “The sand and the clay mixed in, there’s not a lot of things that you really need to do to make it any more gruelling than Daytona Supercross is already recognised for, but it sure is a fun challenge to make it somewhat fun for the riders.”
