Mathew Scholtz Parts Ways With Strack Racing, Attack Yamaha Move Rumored

Strack Racing announced the separation on its social media channels, marking the end of a partnership that delivered back-to-back Supersport championships before the pair moved into the premier class for 2026.

The announcement comes as the MotoAmerica silly season continues to develop, with speculation linking Scholtz to Attack Performance Progressive Yamaha Racing for the upcoming campaign. However, no official confirmation of a deal with Attack has been announced.

Scholtz returned to the Superbike grid with Strack in 2026 following his dominant two-year run in Supersport. The former Superbike race winner demonstrated his pace early in the season, taking victory at Road Atlanta before adding two more wins at Barber Motorsports Park.

While mechanical setbacks and inconsistent results complicated his championship challenge, Scholtz remained a competitive presence in the premier class, ultimately finishing third in the 2026 Superbike standings.

A potential move to Attack Performance Yamaha would give Scholtz another opportunity to contend at the front of the Superbike field, although his next destination remains unconfirmed.

His departure from Strack adds another significant storyline to an increasingly active offseason, with teams and riders working to finalize their lineups for 2027.

For now, the focus shifts to Scholtz’s next move. With his future beyond Strack Racing still unknown, a possible connection to Attack Yamaha remains firmly in the speculation column until an official announcement arrives.
