All of you rabid James Stewart fans out there need to check out ESPNews today at 2:40 p.m. ET / 11:40 a.m. PT, as James will be appearing live as part of ESPN’s Black History Month celebration.

In 2007, James became the first African-American to win a major motorsports title when he claimed the AMA Supercross championship. He followed that up with the 2008 AMA Motocross title, and last year, after moving to the San Manuel Yamaha team, he again won the AMA Supercross championship.

Round number six of the AMA Supercross series took on a very special theme—and color—to help raise awareness and support for breast cancer research on Saturday night. Pink was the color, and the stadium at Anaheim 3 was filled with it! From bike graphics, riding gear, clothing, track banners and more, riders and fans pulled out all the stops in what was surely the most successful themed Supercross event to date. Though James spent the evening in the press box as a guest commentator for CBS Sports’ race coverage, the fellas at Answer Racing had a set of pink-highlighted gear ready to go just in case! Here’s hoping James gets the nod from his doctors to get back on the track very soon!

At this point there is no good news or firm date as to when James will be back on the gate and racing again, but we are happy to report to all of the lucky fans who have a ticket to Anaheim 3 tomorrow night that JS will be in the house! While he is forced to sit out of the race anyway due to his recent wrist surgery, James decided to try his hand at a little commentating; he’ll give it a go tomorrow night at Angels Stadium. Even if you’re going, don’t forget to watch the broadcast on CBS at 12 pm ET on Sunday to see what James has to say about his competition…
