About what displacement is the Supersport 300 class?

Even in the 300 class, overturning an 8-point gap in the final round must have been a huge amount of pressure.

A last-round comeback sounds great, but the consistency leading up to it deserves credit too.

For the Australian contingent, it's basically like having their home title taken from them, so it must sting.

Overturning an 8-point gap to win the title at 19 years old is way too mentally tough.

Just the fact it's the first Kiwi title in 35 years tells you it's a historic achievement.

Curious who actually won it 35 years ago.
