Red Bull KTM Factory Racing rider Marvin Musquin continues to recover from a wrist injury sustained before last weekend’s San Diego round of the 2023 AMA Supercross Championship.

The 33-year-old, unfortunately, sustained the injury while practising and, as a result of that incident, will also sit out this Saturday’s first Triple Crown event of the season at Anaheim 2 on January 28.

It is expected that Musquin – who finished fourth in last year’s series – will at least miss the next few rounds of the season at this point as he awaits further confirmation on the extent of the injury to his left wrist.
Musquin hurt his wrist and had some evaluation done on it the following day, but he has not yet been given a definite diagnosis.
Marvin Musquin: “To have this injury that happened last Wednesday practising this early in the season is not ideal. You prepare yourself for three months, and only to race one race at Anaheim and get hurt is disappointing.
Right now, all I can do is wait and do everything I can to heal. There’s bone bruising and a bad sprain, but I will be out for some time. I’ll go by feeling, day after day, week after week, and see how it goes. That’s all I can do right now.”
Anaheim 2 will see Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Cooper Webb enter the round positioned second in the point standings equipped with his KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION, as 450SX teammate Aaron Plessinger currently sits ninth and Maximus Vohland is 12th in 250SX West.
