CSBK 2025 Finale: Rocket Riders Deliver One Last Thrill at Bowmanville

After three rounds of wheel-to-wheel intensity, the final showdown unfolded at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Bowmanville.The racers had already set the stage—Young, Dumas, Guerin, and Szoke all within shouting distance in the championship. Everything came down to this: one race, everything on the line.

Race 1: Guerin’s Last-Corner Rocket Pass

The atmosphere was electric. Sam Guerin—on a tear, scoring his fourth win in six races—went head-to-head with Ben Young through the final laps. They were toe-to-toe from lap 7 onwards, and Sam pulled off a legendary move on the last lap’s final corner. The win flipped the leaderboard: Young led for a moment, but Guerin’s daring pass tied the standings and carved his spot in the title fight.

Jordan Szoke grabbed third thanks to Dumas slipping off-track during a late mechanical issue, narrowing his gap but keeping Championship hope alive.

Race 2: Chaos Reigns and Young Claims Five

Sunday’s showdown turned chaotic from the green flag. Dumas led early, fending off Young and Szoke—but a slick patch of oil on the track triggered a red-flag restart. When racing resumed, Szoke grabbed the holeshot, only for Young to reclaim the lead on lap 1, with Guerin slotting into third.

It stayed that way until the final lap—until Guerin, in full attack mode, tried an outside pass on both Young and Szoke… and crashed. That mishap effectively sealed the championship for Young.

Despite the drama, Szoke finished strong and nabbed second in that race, giving him 3rd overall in the final standings—leapfrogging Guerin, who was taken to the hospital but had the full Rocket squad behind him.

Rocket Reflection: Grit, Glory, and All the Feels

Sam Guerin’s comeback—from early-season struggles to finishing a broken but fearless fourth—is the kind of saga that earns respect. Jordan Szoke reminded everyone why age is just a number with his late-season charge and podium performances. And Ben Young? He closed the deal under pressure—securing his fifth Canada Cup in a season that felt like an English test.

Looking Ahead

That’s a wrap on CSBK 2025. It had engine smoke, last-lap passes, crashes, and a throwdown finale all rolled into one. More than results, it was a reminder why we ride: for the edge-of-the-seat moments, the rivalries, and the sheer spectacle.

We’ll keep cheering, respecting, and racing right alongside these legends into the lucky 2026 season.

Ride hard, ride real, and always ride Rocket.
