MYOWNRACE
17 JOEY SAVATGY
6TH (3-9) 450MX
Joey Savatgy was thrilled to get on the
podium in the first moto behind Tomac
and Sexton. Unfortunately for him, he fell
in the second moto while running sixth.
"It's been almost four years since the last
me I was on the podium, and there have
been plenty of highs and lows along the
way," said Savatgy. "Finally ge ng myself
back up on the box in the first moto felt
amazing. I was set back a bit overall by
the crash in moto two, but we took major
steps in the right direc on today."
28 CHRISTIAN CRAIG
8TH (5-6) 450MX
Chris an Craig came through with the
heavy hi ers in both motos, but his 5-6
finishes were only good enough for eighth
overall. "I qualified well, and although my
starts weren't the best, I came through the
pack pre y quickly and went 5-6. Unfor-
tunately, that was only good enough for
eighth overall somehow, but that's how it
rolls some mes. It's all about the points
at the end of the day, and I'm close to fi h
in the standings—just two points behind
Dungey. So, I've just got to keep going.
I'd say Eli was on another level today, but
other than that, we were right there with
that top group; we've just got to keep
building."
Tomac put the hurt down
with dominant 1-1 finishes.
