GASGAS on the top of the FIM Motocross World Championship
The FIM Motocross World Championship and AMA Supercross series, also an FIM World Championship, are the most prestigious motocross competitions. Motorsport is an integral part of the Husqvarna brand’s 118-year history and a driving factor in the continued development of its class-leading production motorcycles. So, you can expect to find Husqvarna Motorcycles battling at the front, in the ultimate testing grounds for the competition machines that influence the brand’s extensive range of production models.
The Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing team has enjoyed considerable success in both championships. Following a historic 2018 season in which Jason Anderson claimed the AMA 450SX Championship title, Jason, together with teammates Dean Wilson and Zach Osborne, enjoyed a podium sweep at the final round of the 2020 season. Encouraged by his first 450SX victory, Zach went on to dominate the AMA Pro Motocross 450 class to capture his, and Husqvarna Motorcycles’, first ever 450MX title. The 2020 FIM Motocross World Championship saw a career-best season for FC 250 mounted Jed Beaton. Consistent results and a moto win placed him fourth overall in the final MX2 championship standings
Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing’s MXGP class competitors for the 2021 FIM Motocross World Championship are Thomas Kjer Olsen and a Arminas Jasikonis. Kjer Olsen has adapted quickly to the FC 450 for his first season of MXGP racing and Jasikonis claimed his maiden race victory at the fourth round of the championship in 2020.
