Overview of the 2020 season

After a disappointing injury shortened his rookie season in 2019, Aaron Plessinger will be able to complete his first complete 450SX season in 2020. Plessinger won seven notable places in the top 10 places in his second-year 450SX season, which placed him 11th in the standings at the end of the season. After a 250SX dominance career, the Star Racing Yamaha team has high hopes for Supercross's premier 450SX Plessinger.

Overview of the 2021 season

In July, while preparing for the 2020 outdoor motocross season, Plessinger suffered a wrist dislocation; unfortunately, he did not ride a bicycle all summer. After a successful operation immediately after the injury, Pressinger played in the third season of the 450SX competition and won 2nd place in the 2021 Supercross 450SX.

 

Overview of the 2023 Season

 

Plessinger started 2023 by placing eighth in the AMA Supercross Championship final standings. This had two podium finishes and led the Detroit round for the most of it before losing badly.

Plessinger managed three podium finishes overall in a competition that was reduced in size, and after the season-ending playoffs, he placed fifth in the first-ever 2023 SuperMotocross World Championship.
