The American Motorcyclist Association has released the official number list for the 2022 Supercross and Pro Motocross racing series. Competitors have been ranked in relation to their total points scored while competing in the 250 or 450 Classes during the 2021 racing season; the best riders are rewarded with the champion’s number one plate in their respective region, others are allowed the option to pick a “permanent” for the remainder of their career, and most claim their status by whatever two-digits they’ve been assigned by the system.

Some notable things from the new list…

– Two riders that were “inactive” in 2021 requested to keep their numbers for another year: Chad Reed (22) and Justin Hill (46). We’re not quite sure a comeback is in the works for Reed, especially as he’s dives further into amateur MX with the family, but the allure of a packed stadium could be enough for CR22. As for Hill, we’ve heard that he’s at least considered getting back on the gate next year.

– Jo Shimoda, Jett Lawrence, Colt Nichols, and Hunter Lawrence all earned permanent numbers for their promising futures. Shimoda stuck with 30, Nichols chose 45, and Hunter Lawrence selected 96. Jett’s 250 MX title gave him the option to pick a single digit, but instead he remained with 18.

– Plenty of independent riders improved their rank thanks to solid results through the year, especially the summer’s injury-riddled Pro Motocross season, including Josh Varize (38), Justin Rodbell (55), Kevin Moranz (57), Ryan Surratt (58), Jeremy Hand (63), Ben LaMay (71), Cade Clason is (78), Hunter Schlosser is 79, Chris Canning (82), Jacob Runkles (88), Tyler Stepek (93), and RJ Wageman (99).

– Dylan Ferrandis remained with his now-known 14. This was somewhat of a surprise considering the 450 MX National champion’s option to pick one of the available digits as well as speculation that he would pick four, his former number in MX2, after Blake Baggett did not request to keep it another season.This is the second time that has Ferrandis turned down a one-digit.
