German Dennis Ullrich has extended his contract with the KTM Sarholz Racing Team. The 23-year-old will defend his German ADAC MX Masters title and will contest several GPs. He will be joined at Sarholz by Angus Heidecke who is now back on a bike after a crash earlier in the year.

“I am happy that Dennis and Angus are part of our team next year. We will fully concentrate on the ADAC MX Masters series. Dennis wants to defend his title, of course, and Angus is highly motivated for the 2017 season,” said team boss Burkhard Sarholz.

Ullrich starts his new season on a two stroke KTM 250 SX at the 34th Dortmund supercross in January. He will be joined there by Canadian Kaven Benoit on a KTM 450. Benoit had a stunning ride at the recent Motocross of Nations in Italy.
