The future of Jeremy Seewer in the premier motocross world championship hangs in the balance as the experienced Swiss rider admits his options for the upcoming season are extremely limited. Uncertainty grew after the van Venrooy KTM squad announced their official rider lineup consisting solely of Karlis Reisulis and Byron Dennis in the MX2 class, leaving no room for a premier class program.
Seewer's recent campaign has been marked by significant transitions. After beginning the season with the factory Ducati setup, he parted ways with the Italian manufacturer and finished the year under the van Venrooy KTM tent. Although he appeared to regain a positive mechanical feeling aboard the Austrian machinery, no competitive opening remained available for the upcoming world championship campaign.
Speaking candidly to Moto.ch, the 32-year-old addressed the unhealthy financial ecosystem currently plaguing the professional paddock. "It is virtually certain not to be KTM," he explained. "We are reviewing several options, but the rider market in MXGP is pretty broken right down to its core. The current development is unhealthy: there are only a handful of riders earning decent money and fair salaries, while positions further down offer virtually nothing. I was fortunate to be on the winning side for years, but things are reaching a point where it no longer makes much sense."
Despite facing an uphill battle to secure a competitive European seat, Seewer firmly dismissed any immediate plans of hanging up his helmet. Alternative racing ventures across the Americas and Brazil have emerged as viable pathways, as those championships typically commence later in the spring, granting his management adequate time to orchestrate a solid deal.
"I will keep racing, that is for sure. Championships over there do not start until April or May, so we still have time. I am relaxed and hope we can find a solution by the end of the month to have a clear target ahead. Naturally, I want to ride a fully functioning motorcycle rather than building a brand new project from scratch," he concluded.
