Husqvarna Motorcycles are pleased to announce that Dean Wilson has signed a one-year contract extension that will see him continue to race for Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing. The 27-year-old is set to compete in the 2020 AMA SuperCross and Pro Motocross Championships aboard the Husqvarna FC 450 ROCKSTAR EDITION.
 
Wilson, who rode for Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing in 2017 and 2018, began the 2019 AMA SuperCross season as a Husqvarna Motorcycles supported rider and joined the team’s factory efforts at round six after defending champion Jason Anderson dropped out of the series with injury. From there, Wilson put forth a steady string of top-10 finishes in the premier 450SX class including four top-five finishes, one of which was a third-place at the Houston SX. Although his season ended early with an injury, Wilson ultimately finished the year sixth overall in the 450SX-class standings. He rejoined the Pro Motocross Championship just after the halfway point where he continued to secure solid top-10 finishes to close out the season.
 
Wilson is set to line up for the forthcoming 2019 MEC event taking place this Saturday, October 19 in Las Vegas. From there, he will head abroad to Auckland, New Zealand to compete in the S-X Open and then the AUS-X Open in Melbourne, Australia.
