Red Bull/KTM’s Marvin Musquin Injury Update

Red Bull/KTM Factory rider Marvin Musquin was able to undergo an MRI scan last Friday on his injured right knee sustained in a racing crash he incurred at the Paris Bercy Supercross the previous weekend. It was determined that the MX2 World Champion rider will need surgery to correct the ligament damage.

Musquin injured his knee the Saturday of the three-day Supercross event in the Paris Bercy Omnisports Arena when he put his right leg down hard during the race. Doctors said the treatment and therapy that he has had to date means he will be able to undergo the operation sooner than expected, now set for December 6, 2010. After the surgery he will undergo two weeks of rehabilitation and this will be followed by concentrated physiotherapy and work at home.
