Team USA Still
Undecided For MXoN
S
till no word on Team USA and the Motocross of Na-
tions. After winning last year at RedBud, many of the
same team riders are out for the 2023 event. Eli Tomac
is still recovering from his Achilles injury, Justin Cooper
is getting married the weekend of MXoN, and Chase Sex
-
ton is likely to be under contract with a new team, most
likely KTM.
Sexton still could be in for this year, depending on his
team situation. Haiden Deegan is the obvious pick for
MX2, but we hear he's only interested if Sexton chooses to
be on the team. RJ Hampshire, Aaron Plessinger and Jus
-
tin Barcia are other riders linked to this year's team.
