Joey Savatgy

Savatgy turned professional at the beginning of the 2013 season and between 2015-2018 competed for the Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki, where he achieved his best results aboard a 250cc motorcycle.

Outside of America, Savatgy has been successful in the WSX class of the FIM Supercross World Championship, taking two overall Grand Prix wins and finishing runner-up in the series in 2022 and 2023.

In the same season, Savatgy represented his country at the FIM Motocross Junior World Championship for the first time, where he led both main races and eventually took home the silver medal behind champion Jordi Tixier.

Savatgy left Suzuki to make his professional debut with the JDR J-Star KTM Racing Team in 2013.

[16] The following outdoor season started similarly strongly for Savatgy, where he won the opening round of the 250 class by winning both races.

Savatgy began the 2017 season by competing in the 250SX East class in supercross, taking a win at the opening round in Minneapolis.

[19] Savatgy again started strong in the 2018 supercross season and tied for the championship lead after winning the third round of the 250SX West class.

Following this, he was less successful in the 2018 AMA National Motocross Championship than he had been in previous seasons, with a single race win and third overall at the ninth round being the highlight.

The event saw Savatgy leading the final race before letting new teammate Eli Tomac past on the last lap so he could take the overall win.

At the final round, he crashed during qualifying and sustained a hematoma in his leg that stopped him competing in the main event.

Due to the recovery from the hematoma and other injuries that had been picked up, Savatgy missed the first two rounds of the 2019 AMA National Motocross Championship.

[26] He completed the full 2021 AMA Supercross Championship, scoring eight top-ten finishes to end the season in tenth overall.

Staying with the Rocky Mountain team, Savatgy only competed in the opening two rounds of the 2022 AMA Supercross Championship due to a knee injury.

With Triumph's return to off road racing in 2024, Savatgy was signed by the manufacturer as part of their factory team in America.
