Triumph / Savatgy - SPLIT

Did not see this coming

You legally blind?

Wonder who is going to fill that seat. 

Shocker 

Talk about a disappointing year.. while being healthy..

Cianciarulo took his seat at Kawasaki years ago and he is still clamoring around while AC has since retired. Maybe this works out, FP Honda seems a decent team.

Austin Forkner YOU are a factory Triumph rider 🔥🔥

Forkner to the rescue. 

Not surprised...  What was up with all the DNF's??

Yeah that's insane to be honest. Even when he didn't DNF, I think during the motos he was in the mechanics area at like 8 out of 11 races.

Those were his moto finishes this summer.. He probably has zero trust in that bike at all at this point.
 

Pala:                  5-13
Hangtown:         35-7
Thunder Valley: 17-8
High Point:        19-7
Southwick:          5-6
RedBud:      36-DNS
Spring Creek:    29-9
Washougal:         9-7
Unadilla:       DNF-12
Budds Creek:     5-37
Ironman:         DNF-9

 

“Title threat”

And I know Jalek had an issue here and there, but nothing like Joey had.  It did seem like every time you had Joey on camera, he was coming out of the mechanics area...  

Have the euros had as many problems?

Yeah, I don't understand. I had read here that he'd win motos and overalls.

God definitely moves in mysterous ways. I hope he has a plan for Joey.

If I'm not mistaken, Haarup finished every moto, had 5 moto podiums, 19 top 5 and is currently 5th in the standings.

Honestly his finishes were good when he could finish. I can imagine that the 450 deal falling through really hindered his performance as well. I like him and i hope he gets a chance to get to form. Just a bad deal all around for all involved

Terrible look for Triumph having two riders split before their contracts are up.  Regardless of the reasons.  I get it is expensive, but not moving quicker with the 450 is going to hurt them as well.  AMA/Feld etc not letting Joey race 250SX and develop the bike is another huge miss.

ain’t nothing really wrong doing on Joey’s part or triumph’s part , really came down to the AMA rule change on dropping down for 250 SX & triumph not having the 450 race ready yet , be interested to see where he lands 450 wise 

would love to see joey on a 250/450 at club, or hep. star would be cool too but they already have a 150 man roster. 

Joey's really drawn the short straw too many times in his career. He's capable of being a top 5 450 guy but hes had to start over so many times.

Maybe 3 years ago he was Top 5 450 quality. Now he's for sure top 5-10.

He hasn't scored a top 5 since 2019 the year he moved up. 

Yeah…no.

#Sarcasm

Very strange. That team seems to be complete trash and is headed for an early exit from the pro ranks. 

Being realistic, not hating on Joey. At 30 years old, do we think he can be better than he was 5 or 6 years ago? I'd like to see it, but this sport is tough for guys in Joey's current spot.

What a waste of time for Joey 

Help me out, what did the team do wrong? Unless I'm missing something their manufacturer isn't going to have a 450 ready for '25 SX as originally planned so the team (1) went to bat for Savatgy with the AMA for an extra year of 250 eligibility and when that was denied they (2) did the right thing and let Savatgy seek out other opportunities. 

I’m sure he was getting a decent paycheque
