Vild\u00f3sola confirmed that his recovery is progressing, but he will not receive the necessary medical clearance in time for the Nov. 9-15 Baja 1000, which will be held entirely within Baja California Sur for the first time.\r\n\r\nThe Mexicali, Mexico, racer suffered a compressed spine, fractured vertebrae and multiple ligament injuries to his back during a rollover at the Baja Nevada 1000 in June. Vild\u00f3sola credited his HANS device with helping protect him during the violent crash.\r\n\r\nThe injuries also forced Vild\u00f3sola to miss the SCORE Baja 400 in September. Andy McMillin used Vild\u00f3sola's No. 21 Trophy Truck for qualifying, but Vild\u00f3sola ultimately remained sidelined.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_16366\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"640\"]\"\" Tavo Vildosola announced on the team's facebook page he would not be racing the 2026 Baja 1000.

I\u2019ll be down there anyway, but unfortunately I\u2019m just not getting the proper clearance that I need and I don\u2019t feel that I\u2019ll be ready anyway for a race in November.\u201d\r\n\r\nVild\u00f3sola has undergone a variety of treatments during his rehabilitation, including hyperbaric therapy, red-light therapy, peptide treatments and other recovery methods. However, with the Baja 1000 approaching, he determined there was not enough time to safely return to competition. Vild\u00f3sola's focus now turns toward returning to competition in 2027, with the SCORE Baja 250 expected to be his target for a comeback.","excerpt":"

Red Bull KTM Factory Racing rider Aaron Plessinger will sit out the next two rounds of the 2026 AMA Pro Motocross Championship as he recovers from injuries sustained in a first-turn crash at last weekend's RedBud National. Plessinger suffered a deep laceration and significant bruising to his tailbone after the opening-lap incident in Michigan. While medical evaluations confirmed there are no fractures, the popular Ohio native will miss this weekend's Southwick National in Massachusetts and the following round at Spring Creek in Minnesota to allow the injury to heal.<\/p>\r\n

The injury required stitches immediately after the crash and forced Plessinger out of both motos at RedBud, ending what had been a consistent outdoor campaign.
