Ken Roczen will remain in Fox for 2015, the American brand has announced on the eve of this weekend’s Thunder Valley Lucas Oil Pro Motocross round.

During the past few years Roczen has captured the 2011 FIM MX2 World Championship, was a member of the 2012 MX of Nations (Team Germany) and captured the 2013 AMA 250SX West Championship.

2014 saw him elevate to the 450SX class where he finished third as well as being awarded the 2014 Rookie of the Year. Currently he is leading the 450 Outdoor Series after two rounds.

“Having been with Fox since I was 11 years old, I’m very happy to keep such a solid and long relationship with the Fox Racing family,” said Roczen.

Roczen began his tenure with the brand in 2005 at the age of 11 as a Fox Brigade amateur athlete. Accomplishments include multi-time MX Champion of Thuringia, 2007 85cc Junior World Champion, 2005 85cc German Youth Motocross Champion and 2004 youngest German 85cc champion of all-time.

At the age of 15 Roczen was the youngest rider to ever win a MX2 race. He has won the MX of Nations MX2 class four times in a row. Since coming to the USA to continue his racing career in the AMA series, he has won six 250SX main events, two 250MX overalls, two 450SX main events and one 450MX overall.

“Our relationship with Ken, like the relationship of Fox and Ricky Carmichael, began at an early age. Just as with the GOAT we look forward to supporting Ken throughout his career,” said Fox founder, Geoff Fox.

Be on the look out for big things to come from Ken Roczen and Fox Head Inc.
