\r\n\r\nJoey Savatgy emerged with the victory after a 1-4-2 performance. On Savatgy\u2019s heels was Dean Wilson who secured second place in the standings. Meantime, defending champion Ken Roczen seemed to struggle as he started in the back row of all three final events. Roczen would work his way up to fourth, just shy of the podium spots.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WSX23_AbuDhabi_Max-Anstie-1024x683.jpg\")
