Triumph Racing and Evan Ferry have mutually decided to part ways with immediate effect. Ferry took part in the Triumph Racing project in the US from the beginning, at the same time he made his transition from the amateur ranks.
Unfortunately, Ferry suffered a shoulder injury in Round 2 of the 250SX East Coast Championship on February 24th. From there, nothing was clarified about Ferry´s situation and Today the team released a statement announcing the departure of Ferry from the Team. Now the Triumph Racing will continue with Jalek Swoll in the 250SX East Coast and Joey Savatgy for the 250MX Pro Motocross Championship.
Read the Full statement released by Triumph:
Triumph Racing and Evan Ferry have mutually decided to part ways with immediate effect. Triumph Racing would like to wish Evan all the best in his future endeavours.
It is with regret that Evan Ferry will no-longer race for Triumph Racing in the SuperMotocross World Championship. Evan joined the team during the creation of the global motocross project, a historic step into a new segment for Triumph, which included the development of the all-new TF 250-X. The British manufacturer has supported the 19-year-old throughout his time in the lead-up to the launch of the new US Racing team, and brought in a number of seasoned professionals as part of the programme.
Evan, an AMA Supercross rookie, lined up in what was a proud moment for Triumph and its team at the opening round of the 250SX East Championship in Detroit on February 3rd. With a tough qualifying, the young Floridian dominated the Last Chance Qualifier to make it through to the Main Event with his teammate. Evan was unlucky to be taken out in the first turn, but the young racer had already shown grit and promise in what was an exciting first event. Ahead of the second round in Arlington, Evan was ruled out with an unfortunate injury, and it was the team’s hope he would return to action as quickly as possible.
Despite the efforts of Triumph Racing to support Evan and adapt the programme for the remainder of his rookie year, including the offer of focussing on the Pro Motocross series, Evan has decided that he will step away from the team.
Everyone at Triumph Motorcycles and Triumph Racing wishes Evan all the best for his future.
