Description

Ken Roczen (born 29 April 1994 in Mattstedt, Germany) is a German born professional motocross and supercross racer currently competing in the AMA Professional Motocross and Supercross series. He is an MX2-class Motocross World Champion, Motocross des Nations winner, 250-class west coast Supercross champion, 450-class Monster Energy cup winner, and two time 450-class US Motocross champion.

Roczen first burst onto the European motocross scene in 2009, winning back-to-back Masters Championships in Germany before eventually becoming the youngest rider ever to score the MX2 World Championship, in 2011. The next year, he was a member of the Motocross of Nations-winning Team Germany.

Following that success, the young phenomenon moved to the U.S. to race full-time. After finding his footing in the States, Roczen earned the 2013 AMA Supercross 250SX West title and finished second in the AMA Motocross 250MX Championship.

For 2014, Roczen moved up to the premier class, where he quickly made his presence felt and solidified his status among the top 450SX riders by scoring his first win at the opening round in Anaheim. He was victorious again at Atlanta’s Georgia Dome before wrapping up the season in third overall and earning AMA Supercross Rookie of the Year honors. Roczen followed that up with a stellar showing throughout the AMA Pro Motocross season, winning five rounds and landing on the podium four additional times en route to his first 450MX Championship, capping off the season with Rookie of the Year honors in that series as well.

Although Roczen started the 2015 season in similar fashion by once again winning the Anaheim opener, the remainder of the stadium series was a rollercoaster for the German. He notched one more AMA Supercross victory before being sidelined with an injury for the latter part of the series. Roczen closed out the 2015 season by finishing second overall in AMA Motocross and winning the Monster Energy Cup.

2016 saw Roczen finish runner-up in AMA Supercross, tallying five victories along the way, but it was outdoors where he really shined, dominating the AMA Motocross field by topping 20 of 24 motos in the 12-round series to land his second 450MX crown. In 2017, Roczen joined Team Honda HRC and dominated the opening two rounds of the AMA Supercross series before a horrific crash at Anaheim 2 ended his season. Nearly one year later, the German native lined back up on the gate and was quickly battling for podiums and race wins. His success was short lived though as a freak accident with another rider in San Diego left him sidelined once again. Incredibly, Roczen was able to rehabilitate himself enough to line up at the AMA Pro Motocross opener. He spent the 12-round series building his strength and speed, capturing six podium overall finishes and two moto victories en route to third in the championship and being awarded Sportsman of the Year.

In 2019, Roczen is determined to put himself and his CRF450R back on top of the podium but knows it will take patience and consistency.
