Melbourne, Australia’s sporting capital, has embraced WSX and eagerly awaits the high-intensity racing set to go down to the wire with four riders battling it out for the 2023 WSX title! Will current championship leader, Joey Savatgy triumph over reigning champ Ken Roczen, or can the in-form Dean Wilson or hard-edged Vince Friese claim victory? In the SX2 class, England’s Max Anstie has a commanding championship lead over last year’s SX2 World Champion, Shane McElrath, but we know anything is possible when racing, so don’t rule the determined American out yet!
With two incredible nights of race action, including the Yamaha YZ65cc Cup and CR22 85cc junior racing and FOX Australian Supercross Championship on Friday, plus entertainment featuring live music from DJ Brooke Evers, pyrotechnics and FMX stunts there is something for everyone – LET’S GO MELBOURNE!
