Cycle News Staff | December 7, 2022
The Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing announced its official 2023 SuperMotocross World Championship roster, which will be made up of four riders.
The team’s 450cc riders are newly signed Christian Craig and returning team rider Malcolm Stewart. Riding 250s will be returning riders RJ Hampshire and Jalek Swoll.
All four riders will compete in the 2023 Monster Energy AMA Supercross and Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championships, as well as going for the combined SuperMotocross World Championship.
Craig says he’s adapting well to his new team. “This is year one on the Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing team and it’s been good so far this pre-season,” he said. “I moved the whole family to Clermont and started fresh with Aldon. We went straight into bootcamp, and it’s been good so far. I’m just learning the bike, learning the program and just trying to build each day and get better. I’m getting more familiar with the bike every day and just keep grinding. Other than that, just doing the laps and getting ready for A1, trying to be as ready as possible.”
The team also said it has brought former racer Josh Hansen on board as a test ride.
