250 Class 

  • Each of Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki’s three riders have enjoyed at least one moto podium this season. Two of the three – Chris Alldredge and Adam Cianciarulo – have earned overall podium finishes.
  • Suzuki’s lone manufacturer point came from privateer Brandon Scharer, who finished 20th in the second moto at Thunder Valley.
  • KTM is the only manufacturer to sweep an overall podium this season, at Glen Helen, marking the first time in the brand’s history it had ever done so.
  • Jeremy Martin is the only rider in the 250 Class to finish inside the top 10 in each moto thus far. As a result, he has the best finishing average amongst the top 10 despite a 9.9 starting average that ranks him fifth. His ability to work through the field is why he has the highest start to finish ratio at +7.2.
  • Given Martin’s ability to finish strong, Marvin Musquin’s class leading six moto wins are ultimately why he sits atop the championship standings.
  • Jessy Nelson is the best starter in the division, which has played a major role in his ability to record the third-best finishing average in the top 10 and currently sit third in the standings.
  • Adam Cianciarulo has the third-best qualifying average at 2.1, but has a starting average of 8.8. He’s shown an ability to make passes, with a start to finish ratio of +1.5.
  • Joey Savatgy is also a strong qualifier with a 3.0 qualifying, but his 9.5 starting average and some instances of misfortune have resulted in a 9.4 finishing average.
  • Given his two moto podium finishes this season, Alex Martin has the speed to be a consistent threat but early misfortune has dropped his starting average to 14.6 and his finishing average to 10.1, but his pace is still evident by his +4.5 start to finish ratio.
  • Shane McElrath has done considerable work to earn his position inside the top 10, overcoming a starting average of 17.4, worst in the top 10, to boast a start to finish ratio of +7.1 and an average finish of 10.3.
  • Matt Bisceglia has had similar efforts, fighting his way from a 16.3 starting average to earn a finishing average of 10.4 with a start to finish ratio of +5.9.
  • The 250 Class boasts 11 different moto podium finishers and eight different lap leaders thus far. Seven different riders have finished on the overall podium.
