Fraser McConnell, an underdog in the championship, secured a crucial victory in the penultimate round of the Nitrocross series in Las Vegas to stay in the title race. The tight track at Planet Hollywood made overtaking challenging, but McConnell’s strong start in the final propelled him to an early lead. Polesitter Oliver Eriksson briefly reclaimed first position, but contact from McConnell sent him into the wall, opening the door for Robin Larsson. Timmy Hansen pressured Larsson but couldn’t find a way past, allowing McConnell to build a lead and secure the win. Guillaume de Ridder finished fourth in his Nitrocross debut, while some drivers missed out on the final after intense battles in the Last Chance Qualifiers. Overall, McConnell’s dominant performance in Las Vegas kept the championship battle thrilling as the season approached its climax.
