As first reported by Racer X, Joey Savatgy has confirmed that he’ll be out of action this weekend at Glen Helen after a recent practice crash left him feeling sore. He expects to be back on the gate the following weekend at Hangtown, but said on Twitter that he’ll return for the third round “at the latest.”

Nothing but a bump in the road… Just a detour and I'll be sure to bounce back

Savatgy missed the second half of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross season in 2013 and the entire AMA Supercross season in 2014 due to separate injuries.
Racer X is also reporting that Savatgy’s Rockstar KTM teammate Davi Millsaps will miss the first four rounds of the series as he continues to recover from injury.
