WSX Championship Standings
It’s a showdown between red plate holder Joey Savatgy and reigning champ Ken Roczen for the world title, but if they both slip up then Dean Wilson and Vince Friese have outside chances, although they are likely to be battling each other for the bronze medal!
SX2 Championship Standings
Max Anstie has a solid 32-point lead with 75 points left on the table. If Max is in the top two positions in each of the first two races, then he will be Champion even if McElrath wins them both!
