Vital MX Rookie of the Year Awards

250 Rookie of the Year: Dylan Ferrandis

Without question, Dylan Ferrandis is the 250 Rookie of the Year. (Yes, he raced the MXGP World Championship in the MX2 class for several years, but this was his rookie season in the U.S.) None of the other full-time (or motocross only) rookies even came close to him in the stats, and he was the only 250 rookie to win a race in either series this year. It'll be interesting to see what he can do in his sophomore season.

450 Rookie of the Year: Cooper Webb

It wasn't the rookie year Cooper Webb was hoping for, but he was basically a shoe-in for the 450 Rookie of the Year since he was the only full-time 450 rookie. Injuries, struggles with bike setup, and mistakes held him back throughout the year, but a couple of podiums in motocross proves that the speed is there...he just needs to get everything else sorted out.
