American Christian Craig has won the Perth Supercross after a big battle with Jo Shimoda and extend his lead in the Australian supercross points race. The Japanese rider had passed Craig earlier in the race, only to have Craig repassed as Shimoda crashed and take the victory.

Christian Craig: Jo was riding good and when the red flag came out, I was really careful. That allowed Jo to catch me and make a pass. I wish Jo didn't go down, as it could have been a good battle. The crowd was awesome tonight. It is awesome and the end goal is the title and we have one round to go. I actually ripped the holeshot. I wish the family was here, but we will take the trophy back home.

Shimoda had dropped to around fifth place and then dropped further back to 10th place. Frenchman Cedric Soubeyras finished second in a great ride. The veteran had won earlier in the day and continues to show despite his age, he is still a very good supercross rider.

Aaron Tanti (broken wrist) and Jed Beaton both failed to finish after problems early in the race, while Stark riders, Vince Friese and Jorge Zaragoza continued to shine in the electric bikes, both finishing inside the top ten. Shimoda crashed again later in the moto.
