Dean Wilson had a stellar night in Australia for round two of the three-race Australian Supercross Championship on November 11. Wilson (Froth Honda Racing) was the top qualifier in the premier SX1 (450cc) class, and went on to win all three of the main events.
Josh Hill (CDR Yamaha Monster Energy) was second overall with 3-4-2 results, and Hill’s teammate Luke Clout (Yamaha) rounded out the podium with 3-2-4 results. Dylan Wills (Husqvarna) and Justin Brayton (Froth Honda Racing) rounded out the top five overall.
Brayton was in good contention for the overall win after going 2-2 in the first two races, but a crash in the first turn of race three left him way back in the field with a damaged bike and bruised body.
Wilson goes into the final round with a comfortable 24-point lead over Hill, who is just five points ahead of Brayton. Clout is fourth in the championship, just one point behind Brayton and 17 points ahead of Joel Wightman (Yamaha).
In the 250cc (SX2) class, Max Anstie (Fire Power Honda Racing) won all three races. Nathan Crawford (KTM Australia) was second overall followed by Robbie Wageman (WBR Yamaha Team) in third. Cole Thompson (Serco Yamaha Team) and Wilson Todd (Honda) completed the top five overall.
Anstie also leads his nearest rival in the championship, Crawford, by 24 points. Tied 11 points back are Wageman and Thompson, with Todd another five points back in fifth.CN
