Dean Wilson Returns with Factory Honda to Chase Second Australian Supercross Championship!
Factory Honda is proud to confirm that international star Dean Wilson will return for a fourth consecutive season, determined to add another Australian Supercross Championship to his career.
Wilson, who delivered Factory Honda the 2023 Australian Supercross Championship, is coming off a career-defining year that included his first UK Arenacross Championship and the Brazilian Supercross Championship. His consistency and loyalty to Honda underline the team’s strength and its reputation for success on the global stage.
“It’s been an amazing season, winning my first UK Championship, claiming the Brazilian Championship, and racing with Team HRC in America,” said Wilson. “Many of these opportunities have come from being part of the Factory Honda program in Australia. Returning for a fourth year feels like home, and my goal is clear: I want my second Australian title.”
Last year, Wilson narrowly missed back-to-back crowns, finishing runner-up to his teammate Joey Savatgy. With the Factory Honda team having secured eight consecutive Australian Supercross Championships, expectations are high.
“Losing last year stung, the Australian Supercross Championship carries weight worldwide,” Wilson admitted. “To come so close was tough, but that only fuels me more this season. The team’s history of winning speaks for itself, and I want to add to that legacy.”
Team Director Yarrive Konsky expressed confidence in Wilson’s return:
“Dean continues to prove he belongs among the world’s best. His speed and professionalism helped him capture major international titles this year, and we believe he has everything it takes to deliver another championship for Honda.”
Factory Honda’s 2025 lineup will be its most expansive yet, featuring a strong mix of international and domestic talent across SX1, SX2, and SX3. Alongside Wilson in the SX1 class will be a second 450 rider, with the possibility of a third for select events.
In SX2, Wilson Todd, Alex Larwood, and Brodie Connolly are confirmed, with discussions underway with another international contender. In SX3, the team has locked in Kayd Kingsford, with further SX3 rider announcements to follow.
Konsky concluded:
“Our Honda program has built a reputation for excellence and loyalty. With Dean leading the charge, supported by a deep roster across all classes, we’re aiming to continue Honda’s championship streak and strengthen our place in the sport.”
