The first off-season supercross championship got underway with the Australian SX Championship over the weekend. The first two rounds of the championship took place on back-to-back nights at Kayo Stadium in Redcliffe, and it was U.S.-based SMX riders Lux Turner winning the SX2 class (250cc) both nights with Dean Wilson winning the SX1 (450cc) both nights. This was Turner’s first professional win, which he backed up the second night. Shane McElrath, who won the SX2 class title in 2024, had early race crashes on both nights, hindering his results.
For Wilson, the day two win came hours after his mom passed away following a battle with cancer. Condolences to the Wilson family.
