Cairoli raced two rounds of the series last year – Red Bud and Spring Creek – as he developed the new Ducati Desmo450 MX here in the United States. Before that, he raced five rounds during the 2022 season for Red Bull KTM. The Southwick round will also see Lucas and Sacha Coenen on the gate for a full Euro invasion.
