Christian Craig thought about quitting
The road to his Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship 250SX West Coast was intense. Christian Craig even thought about quitting earlier in his career, he says during the last press conference of the season. In Salt Lake City he managed to put the crown on his work, but the last few weeks were difficult. A mistake in training is easily made and can have major consequences. Connor Fields, winner of the BMX gold at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games, has provided Craig with a lot of mental support.
We are waiting for confirmation that Craig has closed a deal with Husqvarna and will switch to the 450SX next season.
