Evans leads a complete Team HRC Australian MXON line-up

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Australia will be an all-Honda line-up as Team HRC’s #mitchevans (MXGP) joins Team Honda HRC’s #hunterlawrence (MX2) and #jettlawrence (Open) for this year’s Motocross of Nations, held at the prestigious RedBud track in #michigan, USA.

After missing the 2021 edition, Team Australia will have numbers 113, 114 and 115 but they will be amongst the favourites to win the Chamberlain Trophy as they field their strongest trio in a number of years. Evans has shown impressive speed in the last few rounds, and while the results haven’t always gone his way, he has gradually worked himself up the field and is now battling with guys are the very front of what was a very competitive MXGP class.

Unfortunately, his last race in Turkey didn’t end so well, as he crashed out whilst in second position but having rested, recuperated, and let his body recover, he is now fully motivated to put in some strong motos and help Australia try and win their first ever Motocross of Nations.

Alongside Evans are Team Honda HRC riders #hunterlawrence and #jettlawrence, with the three knowing each other from youth events in Australia. #hunterlawrence (2nd 250 SX West Championship / 3rd 250 MX Championship) will be on his #teamhrc 250, while #jettlawrence (1st 250 SX East Championship / 1st 250 MX Championship) will make the step-up to ride a Honda CRF450R in this unique #event.

On Saturday, all three riders will have an extended practice session, before lining up at their randomly-assigned gate for their class’s qualification race. If two of the three Australian results are good enough to get them into the A-Final, they will then line-up for the three motos on Sunday. The first #moto will be MXGP (Evans) and MX2 (H. Lawrence), then MX2 and Open (J. Lawrence) and then finally MXGP and Open, with the five best scores from those six results determining who wins the 2022 Chamberlain Trophy.
