Triumph Racing and Jalek Swoll make Historic Trip to AMA Pro Motocross Podium

• Jalek Swoll delivers 6-4 scorecard at Unadilla for third place overall.
• Triumph Racing make history with maiden AMA Pro Motocross podium appearance.

ATLANTA, GA – August 12, 2024 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Triumph Racing have achieved a historic milestone in their AMA Pro Motocross Championship campaign, with Jalek Swoll finishing third overall at round nine of the series at the iconic Unadilla track in New Berlin, New York. Making a hugely successful return to 250MX competition after the three-week break, the team demonstrated their potential in the sport by claiming their first ever podium result

Another superb chapter in Triumph Racing’s journey has been marked by Swoll, who used the power of his TF 250-X to start inside of the top five in each moto. Despite a sixth-place finish in moto one, Swoll’s confidence shone through in the second race, where he advanced to fourth place. Much to the delight of the thousands of fans in attendance, his 6-4 scorecard clinched third overall. The historic circuit provided the perfect backdrop for this momentous achievement in the sport.

Savatgy had a brief but challenging race in moto one, withdrawing after a crash on the first lap. It was not all bad news, however, as he escaped unharmed and could turn his attention to moto two. Despite starting outside the points, his hard work paid off in the second race as he fought his way through to finish 12th. The limited points secured at Unadilla left him 17th overall, dropping him to 13th in the 250MX championship standings.

There is a furious race to the final chequered flag now – the final two rounds of 2024 AMA Pro Motocross will be run on successive weekends. Budds Creek, round 10, will take place on August 17, followed by a grand finale at Ironman on August 24. Triumph Racing heads into those fixtures with their sights fixed on more podium appearances.

Jalek Swoll: “Wow, what a day. It was good all around. I would have loved to be fourth in the first moto, but it has been amazing for the most part. I was consistently there and it paid off today. It is so special to get a podium for the Triumph Racing team. It is brilliant to reward those guys with a podium. Everyone has been working so hard and that makes a difference!”

Joey Savatgy: “I felt good this weekend! I am just kind of at a loss for words. I just need to get off of the gate – I would love to have the chance to see what I have got. Getting off the gate is the elephant in the…
