The move marks a major change for Hampshire after seven seasons with Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing. Husqvarna\u2019s decision to shut down its factory racing operation at the conclusion of the 2026 season left Hampshire searching for a new home, and he quickly became one of the most sought-after riders available.\r\n\r\n\u201cI am super excited for this opportunity,\u201d Hampshire said. \u201cThey wanted me here just as much as I wanted to be here. To start this relationship off with a newer team and a newer program, I am excited to give them my best for the next couple of years, be able to progress and put in the results.\u201d\r\n\r\nHampshire has already had his first opportunity to test the Ducati Desmo 450MX, and the initial impression has been positive.\r\n\r\n\u201cI\u2019m super excited for this Ducati Desmo 450,\u201d Hampshire said. \u201cHad my first day on it and I\u2019m stoked and I\u2019m walking away with a lot of positives.\u201d\r\n\r\nHampshire enters the team with an impressive resume. He captured the 2024 Monster Energy AMA Supercross 250SX West Championship, has four career AMA Pro Motocross 250-class victories and three 250SX West wins.","excerpt":"
