All-Time 450SX Class Stats: Anaheim
The first 450SX Class hosted in Anaheim was on December 4, 1976. Marty Smith won on a Honda.
Ken Roczen made history with his season-opening win two weeks ago, becoming the first rider in history to win three Anaheim openers aboard three different brands. Ricky Carmichael is the only other rider to win aboard three different brands in Anaheim.
Roczen’s three career Anaheim opener victories tie him with Chad Reed for the most all time.
Roczen’s four Anaheim wins ties him with his main rival Ryan Dungey on the all-time list. Together they have won six of the last seven races at Angel Stadium.
The last rider to sweep victories in Anaheim was Ryan Villopoto in 2012. That feat has been achieved five times since 1999. A total of 13 riders have won in Anaheim at least twice in the same season.
Honda is now tied with Yamaha as the winningest brands in Anaheim history.
