Two weeks ago, in Massachusetts, Plessinger crashed in the qualifying session. The crash led to a fractured elbow. His recovery is expected to take 4-6 weeks. He should be making a comeback at the first round of the 2024 Motocross season.
He chose to not undergo surgery because that could have made the recovery time longer. Plessinger has a positive view on things, he stated, “It’s hard to be negative when I’m lucky enough to work with a great team who fully support healing properly, so we should all be back together getting ready for an early start on outdoor preparations inn a few weeks’ time.”
The Red Bull KTM Factory Racing Team Manager, Ian Harrison, said, ” Aaron started the season out so well with a race win and multiple podiums, we are just really bummed for him. The vibe in our semi is never the same without ‘The Cowboy’ around, but the team will rally together and finish out the Supercross season strong knowing we’ll have Aaron back lifting everyone’s spirits come true come time for Pro Motocross.”
It will definitely be different and weird without AP racing, but all SX fans are just glad to hear that with the proper care, he will be back on the track in just a few weeks.
