Christian Craig Joins Quad Lock Honda for FIM World Supercross Championship

The following is a press release from Quad Lock Honda Racing:

Honda’s three-time World Supercross Championship-winning team, led by Team Manager Martin Davalos, proudly announces the signing of Christian Craig to complete its 2025 line-up.

Craig, the 2022 250 West AMA Supercross Champion, brings with him more than twenty podium finishes and seven career wins. His return to Honda feels natural, as he won his first supercross aboard a Honda. Christian has already experienced success with the brand and now joins a team proven on the world stage.
 
Davalos expressed his confidence and gratitude for Craig agreeing to come on board:
 
“Christian is a proven champion and race winner. He has shown time and again what he’s capable of. Our sport comes with challenges and risks, but when Christian is healthy, he’s a contender for any championship. I’d much rather have him with us than lining up against us.”
 
Craig himself is energized by the opportunity:

“This is an amazing moment for me. I’ve had great success with Honda, and I know what this team is capable of. They’ve beaten the factory teams, Kenny won with them, Anstie won with them, McElrath and Savatgy have won and been on the box in respective championships. Their bikes, their staff, their processes, all of it is at the highest level. That’s why I’m confident I can achieve success here too. The team has one clear goal: winning. I’m grateful for this chance and excited to get to work.”
 
Honda’s 450 rider roster is now set with Craig and Joey Savatgy, both AMA Supercross race winners, both hungry to claim their first 450 World Supercross Championship title.
 
World Supercross CEO Tom Burwell welcomed the news with enthusiasm:
“Christian is another elite level rider who adds even more strength to the championship. Our mission has always been to bring world-class racing to the fans, and Christian’s inclusion makes that even stronger. Fans around the world should be excited to witness the very best competing on our global stage. ”
 
The team’s 250 line-up will feature two-time World Supercross Champion Shane McElrath alongside two-time Australian Champion Brodie Connolly, a balance of proven success and rising talent.
 
Davalos concluded with optimism:

“This year will be tough, and that’s exactly how it should be. The challenge pushes all of us teams, riders, and the sport itself, to raise the bar. We’re focused, motivated, and ready. With our line-up and our machinery, I believe we can deliver wins, podiums, and chase championships.”
