Ferrandis will keep the streak alive since all but 1 mentioned above were on 250cc machines.

Tripes was born ('56) in a leap year and got his first win in a leap year ('72).

Plessinger was born ('96) in a leap year and 2020 is a leap year. 1st win for AP tomorrow night. Stamp it!

Just curious (if your serious) how can you tell it was a leap year way back then seems like an odd thing to know

Well I was born in '68 (a leap year), so my school project in ('72) involved calculating all the leap years from 1600 to 2152. Seriously though, just a fun fact I looked up.

That's pretty cool, but check how many 450 wins Yamaha has had in 2010-2019. (Hint- not very many).

That’s a lot of research for a 4 year old. How young do you Americans start school?

Any year divisible by 4 is a leap year
