Webb To Sit Out
MX Nationals
R
ed Bull KTM confirmed its
roster for the upcoming 50th
anniversary of the Pro Moto-
cross Championship. Riders,
Aaron Plessinger and Max Voh-
land are set to race the full se-
ries as they return from injuries
during the Supercross series.
Tony Cairoli and Ryan Dungey
are also in for the opening two
rounds, but we suspect they will
stay if results prove worthy.
The big news is Cooper
Webb announcing via the
DMXS podcast that he won't
be lining up this summer. Webb
has struggled all season with
the new bike, switching training
programs, and a injury that saw
him miss the St. Louis round.
The two-time Supercross
Champion is nearing the end of
his contract with the KTM team
but is likely to return for the
2023 season.
Marvin Musquin is also in the
last year of his contract, which
is a Supercross-only deal. He
is currently the "team leader" at
KTM this season and has hinted
at racing again next year.
