SX US: Denver for the penultimate!

-

With now five victories each, Cooper Webb and Chase Sexton only have two races to decide. With its success last weekend, the official Yam Star Racing Monster struck a big blow since it is enough for him to ensure two seconds behind his rival to be titled a third time. On Saturday in Denver, the 250 pilots of the West Coast will also be there.

Cooper Webb is still having two races from the end!

For the fourth consecutive year, the US Supercross championship moves in the Empower Field at Mile High in Denver. In Colorado, pilots will once again find an open -air stadium with a capacity of 75,000 people. Jason Anderson (2022), Chase Sexton (2023) et Jett Lawrence (2024) are the three riders who have already won a 450 final on site. Note that the Official KTM Red Bull will be the only old -esyman behind the grid next Saturday. Dominator last week, Cooper Webb did very hard by stopping the dynamics of his rival. With twelve points ahead and two races on the calendar, he can see coming. CW2 knows how to manage this type of situation, he has solid nerves and an experience of old briscard. In 2019, already in Denver, the year of his first title, he led the championship with eighteen points more than Eli Tomac. Two years later, before tearing off his second crown, he had a small margin of nine units on Roczen two rounds from the end. Whenever the American ended up in this situation, he went to the end without cracking. Never two without three, the outcome is close! For Sexton, you should no longer ask yourself, win the Denver and SLC finals and see what’s going on behind hoping for a misstep from your rival. In 2023, the year of his first title, everything had decanted for him at the end, Chase obviously did not forget him. For his part, Ken Roczen is almost guaranteed to finish third this season. The German will he compete in his last two SX on the handlebars of his 450 RM-Z, the question is asked since K-Roc discusses with several teams including Ducati. For Justin Cooper (241 pts) and Malcolm Stewart (237 pts), the fight for fourth place will also continue. We will also keep an eye on Dylan Ferrandis which can clearly go get a final P7. If French admits that he is not at the top physically, we are counting on him!

Cole Davies can still overthrow your Deegan teammate on the West coast!

250 West Coast: Cole Davies always believes in it!

Western pilots are back and all eyes will be turned to Cole Davies. The young New Zealand nugget remains on two consecutive successes and has only seventeen points behind her teammate Haiden deegan who has not won for four races. Can it reverse the tendency to Denver? The rookie believes in it, even if the mission promises to be delicate with only two events to compete. Vice-champion for two years, Dangerboy remains determined and wants its first SX title. For the third step of the podium, it will be played between Beaumer (145 pts) and Shimoda (136). The Japanese is on the HRC hot seat and if it wants to extend next year, it must finish the SX/MX/SMX season at a string. Four pilots fight for the top five, Schock (115 pts), Marchbanks (110), Smith (108) et Mosimana (99).
