Blake Fox Reflects On Maiden 85cc Supercross Title

He accrued a remarkably consistent points-haul for the evening though and came out a 12-point victor in the championship. The championship saw an all-KTM top four, with Fox winning the crown from Brodie Connolly, ahead of Jake Kowal and Lachlan Winchester.

‰ÛÏThis is the first year they‰Ûªve really had a championship for us juniors, so to win that in my first year is cool." Fox commented. "They were tough conditions to finish it off in at Jimboomba, but we really only had to finish the races to win, so we were just trying to keep it on two wheels and hoping nothing random happened in all the mud. They were really tough conditions, I think pretty much every pro crashed.

"I had three little slip-overs - it was one of the hardest races I‰Ûªve done in my life. You‰Ûªd go through a rhythm section and you could hardly see the top of the jumps because they were all covered in water.

"I loved racing supercross this year. I feel like it really suits my style. It‰Ûªs a lot different to motocross and I like all the big jumps and rhythms the different techniques you have to use. You‰Ûªve gotta‰Ûª be focused the whole time though because one little brain fade and you‰Ûªre probably going to hit the deck hard.

"I‰Ûªll be on junior Lites in Supercross next year - I‰Ûªm loving the KTM 250 SX-F. I‰Ûªve been training on it lately and I feel pretty good on it already!‰Û
