“I’m really looking forward to the new year! We’ve got a great group of riders, and we expect to be a serious contender once again in 2020. Everyone has been working hard to prepare for the Supercross season, and it’s almost time to put that to the test. We are all eager to get back to racing,” says Hahn as quoted from Yamaha Racing.
“As always, I’m pretty excited to go back racing! I had a lot of good, productive work during the off-season. I’m very comfortable on the bike and am feeling great! I definitely can’t wait for the season to start.”
“A long off-season always has me wanting to line back up on the gate again. I’m really excited for 2020. I felt like I had a strong and consistent 2019, which gives me new confidence and motivation going into this year! I love this team, and I am feeling really confident with the bike and the people around me. I’m more than ready to go racing this year. Bring it on!”
“I’m always pumped to start a new season with the team. This will be my fourth year with them, and I am aiming to make it the best one yet. I love working with the guys, and the bike is awesome as always. 2019 was a good year of building, so I’m ready to take on 2020 full steam.”
