KTM Canada will feature an all-new READY TO RACE rider lineup in the 2026 Canadian Triple Crown Series, with experienced Estonian Harri Kullas contesting the 450 Pro Class and Crayden Dillon representing the KTM Canada Red Bull Race Team in the 250 Pro Class.
The 33-year-old Kullas will make his debut in Canada this season after having contested both the MXGP World Championship and the AMA Pro Motocross Championship during his international career.

Kullas will be equipped with the KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION, and is targeting strong results across the eight-round championship, which begins at Calgary’s Wild Rose MX circuit on June 7.

Harri Kullas: “I’m excited to come and race in Canada. What I’ve seen of the tracks, they look really cool with many sandy surfaces, which suits me well. It’s a new country and a new team, so it should be exciting and something new for me. The team has been very supportive, even if I’m far away at the moment, and that gives a great feeling for going and building a strong season together!”

As for 19-year-old prospect Dillon, he will pilot the KTM 250 SX-F FACTORY EDITION for the team in 2026, representing an exciting young racer who has extensive credentials in the world of snowmobiling. The KTM Canada Red Bull Race Team will look to harness his skillset in motocross this season, which already saw him clinch the Premix title in 2025.

Crayden Dillon: “This is an opportunity of a lifetime! I’m super-grateful to get this opportunity from the people at KTM Canada to be aboard the KTM 250 SX-F for the 2026 Triple Crown series. I’m ready to put in some hard work down south in April and keep building from the improvements I made last year. With this team, bike, people, and program, I have no doubt that with some additional time and practice, we will be battling for the top position all season long. See you at Round 1!”

In addition, three-time 250 Pro Class Champion Kaven Benoit will continue to play an important role as part of the KTM Canada Red Bull Race Team for 2026, training the team’s athletes throughout the season while holding a brand ambassador role.

Mathieu Deroy, KTM Canada Race Team Manager: “We’re heading into 2026 with fresh faces and a full roster, and the energy within the team has never been higher. Expectations are big, and we’re excited to fight for wins all summer long. Every member of this squad brings exceptional talent and a true passion for racing. We’re incredibly grateful for the people who support us and make all of this possible.”
