Recovery

Working his way through the pack, Villopoto was charging through the field to catch the front-runners. On Lap 3, the Washington native and James Stewart collided in the corner after the whoops section, causing both riders to go down. With damage to his bike, Villopoto was forced to pull into the mechanics area for repairs. He recovered to finish ninth.

“I’m very disappointed that I’m not riding to my potential,” said Villopoto. “I know I can win and I am not going to give up this championship until Las Vegas. I am only three points out and ready to bounce back.”

 

Five To Go

The championship race in the supercross class continued to heat up in Toronto. With five races to go, Villopoto knows he has to bring everything he’s got.

“I’m not done fighting for this championship,” said Villopoto. “I am going to keep working hard and I’m determined to be back on the podium in Dallas.”
