Marvin Musquin injury – out of 2020 Supercross season
By Team TMX on 6th Dec 19
A leg injury that requires surgery has put Marvin Musquin out of the entire 2020 AMA Supercross season, the team announced today.
While preparing for the upcoming Supercross season, Musquin was at KTMs test track facility in Corona, California when he cased a jump, injuring his knee.
He returned to France this week and successfully underwent surgery to repair his left knee and will now concentrate on intense therapy to properly heal over the next few months.
Marvin Musquin: It's tough to share this disappointing news.
I was really happy to be back on the bike riding after being injured at the end of the Motocross season and starting to train for Supercross.
Unfortunately, I had an incident at the KTM test track and ultimately over-jumped a jump that had a very big impact on my legs when I landed, injuring my left knee.
I had it evaluated by several doctors and it was determined that my knee required surgery.
Its devastating news to me as I was really looking forward to racing Supercross, but I will take the time needed to recover properly with my main focus being to return when I am strong enough to win races.
Red Bull KTM Team Manager, Ian Harrison: We want Marvin to take the time he needs to fully recover. He is a big part of our program and we have a good working relationship so we understand how disappointing this is for him and the whole team. We are here to support him and look forward to him making a return to racing when he is 100 per cent ready.
Team DBR and TMX join the Red Bull KTM team in wishing Marvin a speedy recovery.
