Justin took his first big overall win in the series in the 450 class at Phoenix repeating himself in Seattle logging the #51 into the record books a couple more times in the premier class in 2013. Barcia earned the prestigious 450 Rookie of the Year award for his efforts just before heading Europe and stealing the show at both the Genoa Supercross held in Italy as well as the Bercy Supercross for the second time in his career.
An injury unfortunately derailed a bit of the 2014 season however he was not without his fair share of podiums earning four throughout the races he did compete in. Justin and the AutoTrader.com/ Toyota/ JGR/ Monster Energy/ Yamaha squad are motivated in 2015 and after much success in the immediate past things are continuing to look even brighter. With 25 major amateur national titles as well as two 250SX East Coast championships and a Monster Energy Cup title, this guy is well on his way to legendary status. An international super- star, Justin has earned that right of passage as he has proven to be among the best to ever compete at the big show and 2016 shall be no different.
