Summary
Christian Craig is one of the sport of Supercross genuine success stories. From a highly touted amateur career that blossomed into an early professional career marred by serious injuries, Christian stepped away from the sport completely and resigned himself to an early retirement.
That wasn't the end of the road though for Craig as he re-found his love of riding, that eventually lead to him getting a fill in ride that would serve as the launch pad for the second run at a professional career. Fast forwards to 2023 and Craig is coming off the back of his first Supercross title and into a 2 year deal on a 450 with the powerhouse Husky squad.
