Our man in Hungary, Andras Hegyi, noticed a milestone victory two weeks ago for Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki rider Joey Savatgy. Not only was it Savatgy's first 250SX main event win, and the first time he's ever earned the red plate, Joey became the 100th rider in the history of Monster Energy AMA Supercross, am FIM World Championship, to win in the 125cc/Lites/250SX Class. Over the weekend, GEICO Honda's Christian Craig upped that number to 101!
Andras compiled a complete list of the winners for us, ranked by the number of wins they collected in this class since 1985, as well as the years in which they won.
