Team announced before the
Houston Supercross that Malcolm
Stewart will be out of action for
"an extended duration."
Stewart sustained a knee injury
while practicing before last week's
Anaheim 2 Supercross.
"It was very tough to receive the
news that Malcolm will need to
undergo knee surgery," said Team
Manager Nathan Ramsey. "He has
worked so hard to be in a position
to win races this year and I truly
believe he was ready. The Rock

in every way that we can through
his recovery, and we can't wait to
get him back on track and back at
the races."

Janisch Joins Wally
Brown Racing
W
ally Brown Racing has
recruited 2022 Mission
Production Twins Champion
Jesse Janisch to compete in
the 2023 Progressive Ameri-
can Flat Track series.
Wally Brown Racing will
step up to the premier Mis-
sion SuperTwins category
after developing the WBR
KTM 890 Duke into a two-
time Mission Production
Twins race winner with
James Rispoli at the controls
a year ago.
This season, WBR and
Janisch will run a limited
schedule with continued sup
-
port from KTM North Ameri-
ca. The effort will utilize both
the established WBR KTM
890 Duke and the all-new
WBR KTM 790 Duke as KTM
shifts its focus to the 790
platform to prepare for the
2024 rules package.
"I've been able to witness
the triumphs of the WBR
program at the expense of
my own successes in 2022,"
Janisch said, "As they say–if
you can't beat them, join
them! I cannot wait to jump
on the new 790 platform
that they've been hard at
work on this winter and see
where we shake out at our
first round."
