Melbourne WSX: Roczen crowned champion

German rider Ken Roczen is the new World Supercross champion after finishing second in a dramatic WSX Australian Grand Prix.

The WSX title ends a championship drought for the Honda rider. American Joey Savatgy won the WSX race with Roczen second and America’s Justin Brayton in third.

“I would do it over and over again, I’ve had such an amazing experience. It’s been a tough ride the last few years that’s why I did this,|” said Roczen.

“I don’t regret it. I’ve had so much fun here, I love coming to Australia and I can’t wait to come back again. Finally getting a title again, especially the first one for my team, is nothing short of amazing.”
