This Sunday night, Ricky Carmichael has the opportunity to become the first four-time winner of the AMA Athlete of the Year award. He just received his sixth nomination for the award.
To say that Ricky Carmichael’s first season aboard a Suzuki was successful would be a gross understatement. Let’s look at the titles he has earned, including World Supercross Champion, AMA Supercross Champion, AMA Motocross Champion, U.S. Open of Supercross Champion and Motocross des Nations Champion as a member of Team USA. Wow!
With his 13th AMA National Championship under his belt, Carmichael will roll into the new Supercross season in a couple of weeks with the opening round in Canada.
