Hunter Lawrence, AMA Pro Motocross 450 Champion, foreshadowed problems with World Supercross (WSX) in a recent Vital MX interview. Speaking about SuperMotocross, Lawrence said, "No one really asked for this series. It was kind of a little—like a save to try and stop everyone from going to WSX, but the wheels seem to kind of be falling off that one..."
The FIM World Supercross Championship cancelled the British GP that was due to take place around two weeks from now, on October 10. The reason given for pulling the Birmingham event, which is one of the headline events of the championship, is that WSX needs to take "short-term operational measures". Reading through the corporate speak would suggest that WSX is in a bad place, financially speaking.
