The Kawasaki duo of James Stewart and Jeremy Albrecht placed second to Carmichael in the battle for the AMA championship, but took the Amp’d Mobile World Supercross championship with a 3 point lead. Albrecht, who joined the Kawasaki team in 1995, has been with Stewart since the beginning of his professional career.
