Breaking news out of the USA – Dean Ferris has parted ways with the Monster Energy Yamaha Factory Racing Team. PR from the team below.
With Monster Energy Yamaha Factory Racing Team’s Aaron Plessinger returning to full fitness, the team and replacement rider Dean Ferris have come to a mutual agreement to part ways for the remainder of this season. The Monster Energy Yamaha Factory Racing Team will contest the rest of the 2019 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship with its original two-man team of Justin Barcia and Plessinger, and would like to thank Dean for his very respectable results supporting the team while Plessinger was out with injury.
Next on the schedule is round seven at the RedBud National in Buchanan, Michigan on July 6. In the spirit of the Fourth of July Holiday weekend, the Monster Energy Yamaha Factory Racing Team will be sporting a patriotic Stars and Stripes livery.

“It was a pleasure to have Dean filling in for the opening rounds of the 2019 Lucas Oil Motocross Championship while Aaron was recovering from injury. Now that Aaron has returned to his #7 YZ450F, the Aussie national champ has decided to return home down under. The Monster Energy Factory Yamaha team appreciated his strong work ethic and commitment while in the states, we wish him all the best in the future.”
