During the second 450SX heat race of the night at the 2018 Houston SX, Red Bull / KTM’s Marvin Musquin went down hard through the whoop section and dislocated his shoulder. They popped his shoulder back in, but the former red plate holder sat out the rest of the Houston SX. Marvin will have his shoulder evaluated early next week. Marvin joins Eli Tomac and Dean Wilson as early season casualties in the 450SX class.

“After qualifying 3rd today, I went down hard in the whoops in my heat race,” Marvin said in a press release. “I landed on my left shoulder and felt really beat up. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to line up for the rest of night. I’m really disappointed about that given the team and I were in a good place after our win last weekend. But I will get checked up as soon as I get home and will know more in the next few days. Supercross is a longer season so I’m hopeful I will be able to line up in Anaheim 2.”

We will update you more after we get some official updates from the Red Bull / KTM team.
