TRIUMPH CONFIRMS ITS THREE-RIDER TEAM FOR 2024

Triumph Racing has confirmed that Joey Savatgy, Jalek Swoll, and Evan Ferry will compete on the all-new Triumph TF250X in the AMA 250 National Motocross Championship. For
the AMA Supercross Championship Jalek Swoll will be competing in the AMA 250 East Regional series. Joining Jalek Swoll in the 250 East will be Evan Ferry, who will be stepping up from the amateur ranks.

Joey Savatgy hoped to get a waiver from the AMA to let him return to the 250 East/West Supercross series so he could join his two young teammates in the stadiums, but Joey has finished in the top ten in 450 Nationals and 450 Supercross points four times in the last five years—which makes the AMA loath to give him a waiver—thus, he is ineligible to return to the 250 East/West series. But he can race whatever class he wants in the 2024 AMA Nationals, but Triumph doesn’t have 450 yet, so Joey will be in the AMA 250 National class.

The three  Triumph riders have been training with former Pro Motocross champion, Mike Brown, in readiness for the upcoming season. With Mike having worked alongside one of the sport’s most influential trainers in recent years, as well as possessing a huge wealth of knowledge from his decades long international racing career, Brown’s expertise in physical fitness and race craft will undoubtedly be of huge benefit to all three riders in 2024.

Joey Savatgy

“To be a part of Triumph Racing is very special. For where I’m at in my career, it gives me the opportunity to be back racing on factory equipment, which will allow me to prove to myself that I’m still capable of being a title contender. As the Triumph is an all-new bike, I expected it to take some time to get used to it, but it was actually quite quick and easy to ride. In particular, the chassis has a soft feeling, and this makes the bike really comfortable to ride. The base platform of the standard bike is a great place to work from and I’m excited to get started with this new chapter in my career.”

“I’m super excited to be a part of Triumph Racing. I’m starting a new chapter in my racing career with a great group of people and with the whole team, we’ve been putting in a lot of work. My first impressions of the bike were great. I feel really comfortable on it, and I know it’s capable of doing great things. I’ve been putting in the work with our team trainer, Mike Brown, just grinding away and I’m focused on the podium. There’s definitely going to be some fireworks when we get out there racing and it’s awesome to be writing a little piece of history with Triumph Racing. I’m ready to get racing and I’m excited for 2024.”

Evan Ferry

“It really is an honor to be racing for such an awesome brand and their new race team. To be one of the first people to ride, let alone race, this new bike gives me an amazing feeling. I’m so excited to be racing this bike in 2024 AMA 250 East Supercross seriesand my expectations are to be battling with the other factory guys. The whole Triumph Racing team is great, and we have some of the best personnel and mechanics in the business. Overall, I’m super stoked to be a part of this program. I have everything I need to be successful, and I can’t wait for the new season to begin.”
