“A GAME OF STATISTICS” – 2022 AMA PRO NATIONAL STATS AFTER 4 OF 12 ROUNDS
2022 AMA PRO NATIONAL STATS AFTER 4 OF 12 ROUNDS
We are four races into the 12-round 2022 Pro Motocross Championship and so far it has been Team Honda HRC with all the momentum on their side. Not only is Honda leading the 250 and 450 Championship standings, but they also are one of two factory teams with all of its riders healthy (the other team being GasGas).
Yamaha is missing their defending 450 Motocross Champion Dylan Ferrandis, as well as Jeremy Martin and Colt Nichols. Kawasaki is missing Adam Cianciarulo, as well as Austin Forkner and Cameron Mcadoo, KTM is missing Cooper Webb (and most likely Antonio Cairoli since he went home to Italy), Husqvarna is missing Malcolm Stewart, Dean Wilson and Jalek Swoll. Plus, Suzuki is currently missing Justin Bogle, Carson Mumford and Dilan Schwartz.
As the series takes a one-week hiatus, the riders and teams are continuing to work on improving their craft and they’re also recovering from the last four weekends of racing. Since there isn’t a race happening this weekend, we have a list of statistics, provided by Ben Bridges, to give you insight into how the opening four races have been for the top 250 and 450 riders.
