Young Swede was an EMX250 rookie this year and had some good results in the top ten. An injury hindered his championship position but he also contested a few rounds of the MX2 World Championship as a wildcard.

For the 2025 season, Frisk will remain a privateer on KTM machinery but with official support. The setup will be called the Kullen 1502 KTM Racing team. The main focus will be on the EMX250 championship as well as the Swedish championship where he’ll also receive help from KTM Scandinavia. Frisk will also contest some MX2 World Championship events as the calendar allows.

The plan is to continue to be based in France working again closely with former GP rider, Steven Frossard who is his trainer.

Not only that but when there’s a break in the calendar, Frisk also has plans to travel to America to contest at least one round of the AMA Nationals. There is no doubt that would be a cool experience.

“I will do a private setup like last year but this year I’ve got help from KTM official. Kullen 1502 is my biggest sponsor/partner that’s why it’s the name of the team. The plan is to do the Swedish and EMX250 championship as well as some MX2 GP’s. I will also go to US in the summer”, Frisk told GateDrop.com. 

Frisk wants to fight for the Swedish MX2 title as well as being a consistent top ten rider in the EMX250 class with the main goal of staying injury free for the whole season to improve.

“For the Swedish championship for sure my big goal is to fight for the title. As for the EMX250 series, I want to be consistent in the top ten and when I have the speed fight for the top five spots. But the season is long and I wanna improve throughout it as well”, Frisk added. 

On his plan trip to the USA, Frisk added:

“I will just go over and see what it’s like. It’s a dream for me and a good experience”.
