Biography
Blake Davis returns to the MotoAmerica Supersport Championship in 2026 as a title favorite, continuing his powerhouse partnership with Strack Racing aboard the factory-supported Yamaha YZF-R9. After a standout 2025 campaign, Davis has firmly established himself as one of the riders to beat in the premier middleweight category.
The 2025 season saw Davis master the R9 platform, finishing 3rd overall in a highly competitive field. His consistency was remarkable, racking up 10 podium finishes and three race wins. The highlight of his year was a dominant weekend sweep at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, proving he has the pace to control a race from the front.
Since earning the 2019 Nicky Hayden AMA Road Race Horizon Award, Davis’s trajectory has been meteoric. A two-time Twins Cup Champion (2022, 2023), he has successfully transitioned his technical expertise and “calculated-aggressive” style to the Supersport ranks. With two consecutive third-place championship finishes in the class, the Virginia native enters 2026 with a singular focus: adding a third MotoAmerica title to his resume.
Little Known Fact: Blake says Scott Russell was a racing hero even though Scott earned his major racing accomplishments well before Blake was born. Blake started racing motocross when he was four and switched over to Supermoto minibikes when he was six. Blake’s dad, Mike Davis, in addition to racing along the East Coast on an amateur basis, served as a crew chief for several teams in MotoAmerica.
