The team released the following statement in the US this weekend, confirming the news:
Red Bull KTM factory rider Dean Ferris was injured in a practice crash this past week and will miss the remainder of the Monster Energy 250 SX West Supercross Championship series.
With an eight-week break between rounds six and seven in the West Coast SX series, Ferris had returned to Australia and was at his home riding when the accident happened.
