The 2011 MX2 World Champion will race the last MXGP of the season in front of his home crowd at Teutschenthal, Germany, during the 23rd September weekend.
After being proclaimed the MX2 World Champion in 2011, Ken Roczen
decided to move to the USA to live his American dream and he had a solid
debut in the Supercross series, finishing second of the Lites East
Coast, behind Justin Barcia.
Last weekend he took part in the ADAC MX
Masters-Laufes in Gaildorf where he confirmed that he will be racing the
last Grand Prix of the FIM Motocross World Championship, as he had
promised before moving to the USA.
It is going to be a unique opportunity to see again Ken Roczen fighting
among the best motocross riders in the World. Besides, Teutschenthal, a part from
hosting the MX1 and MX2 World Championship, will also be the scenario
for the last rounds of the MX3 and WMX World Championships.
Moto-Media understands that it was part of the 'deal' for Teutschenthal, to secure the
final round, that KTM would have Roczen back from the USA. The GP
'circus' then moves to Lommel for the MXoN the next weekend.
