Coming into the 2025 campaign, Pelle Gundersen had planned to focus on the EMX250 series, but as the year progressed his direction changed. After sampling the MX2 World Championship, the Norwegian talent made the switch of emphasis to end the season racing the World Championship – it proved to be a smart move.
Gundersen not only scored MX2 World Championship points but also caught the eye of the Norwegian federation, earning selection to represent his country at the Motocross of Nations at Ironman. The experience and exposure have set him up well for the next step in his career.
Looking ahead to 2026, It has been confirmed that Gundersen will continue with Husqvarna Scandinavia. The new agreement will see him contest all the European rounds of the MX2 World Championship, while also lining up in the MX2 Swedish Championship – a series he’ll aim to fight for at the sharp end.
Pelle Gundersen on re-signing with Husqvarna Scandinavia:
“I’m happy to be resigning with the Husqvarna Scandinavia Team for the 2026 season. They are great people and it is a bike I already know well. The plans for next year are to ride all the European rounds of the MX2 World Championship and the full Swedish Championship. Thanks to the team and to all the sponsors that make this possible.”
With continuity behind him and a clearer programme ahead, Gundersen will be hoping 2026 becomes another year of steady progress – and one that will see him improve racing against the best MX2 riders in the world.
