Benoit Paturel will compete this summer in the American AMA Pro Motocross Championship. He will do so with the HEP Motorsport Suzuki team, the same team that Ken Roczen has been riding for over the past few years.
Paturel was unable to secure a good deal for the MXGP World Championship this year, which led him to travel to the United States earlier this year for a few weeks to explore his options. He has now found a team and will race his first American event next weekend at Fox Raceway!
