Courtney Duncan is back to full fitness as she begins her quest for a fourth world motocross crown after a broken collar bone ruined her 2022 campaign.
Dutch rider Nancy Van De Ven ended Duncan’s three-year grip on the title to finally become the WMX world champion, however, the triple world champion signed off her disrupted season with a double victory at the final round of 2022 in Turkey and will be looking to remind her competition early in the season that she is still the one to beat.
Duncan is among 39 riders entered at the first round of the 2023 FIM Women’s Motocross World Championship which gets underway this weekend at the soft sand track of Riola Sardo in Sardinia, Italy.
