He won both sprint races and secured victory in the final main event, keeping the lead when it mattered most and finishing the season ahead of Savatgy by five points in the overall standings.
The SX2 championship was confirmed for British rider Max Anstie, who rounded out a dominant campaign in the 250cc class. While Shane McElrath took multiple race wins on the night in Cape Town, Anstie’s season-long consistency and solid finishes were enough to secure his second SX2 world title. Anstie finished the night as runner-up behind McElrath, a performance that solidified his place at the top of the final standings.
The team championship concluded with Quad Lock Honda taking the title, continuing its strong performance throughout the 2025 season.
