Every time I see them, I’m blown away. If you love the rush of adrenaline, you really need to check out World Supercross!

Now, seeing the WSX Championship Finale come to Etihad Arena—with 7,000 tons of sand—just makes it even more special. For me, it’s a dream come true to be part of an event that unites all types of motorsport lovers in one place!”
