Orion Motorsports Honda’s Steve Crevier won Sunday’s Yoshimura 600cc Sportbike race at Shannonville Motorsports Park in Ontario, Canada, but Blackfoot Suzuki’s Clint McBain wrapped up the 600cc Championship with a sixth-place finish.

Crevier’s teammate, Kevin Lacombe, was only three points behind McBain in the Championship standings, but Lacombe crashed on lap two of the race, handing the title to McBain.

In post-race dyno checks, Crevier’s Honda CBR600F4i was found to be 0.8-horsepower over the class’ 110-horsepower limit, giving the official race win to Kawasaki’s Owen Weichel.

Crevier’s penalty does not change the outcome of the Championship.
