Team Motul Suzuki picked up multiple podiums at Bathurst's
opening two rounds of the 2014 Australian Supercross Championship,
with Matt Moss sweeping the weekend's victories and Lawson Bopping
scoring third position on Saturday.
Moss was flawless on board the 2015 model RM-Z450 to win his
heat races both premier class SX1 main events, while upon return to
the team Bopping was a fighting fourth in Friday's opening round
and third on Saturday during round two.
The result is a continuation of dual MX Nationals champion Moss'
recent run of form, which now sees him lead the ASX championship by
six points, with Bopping a further six back in third.
"Everything is gelling at the moment and I feel really good on
the 2015 Team Motul Suzuki RM-Z450," Moss explained. "We were able
to win both nights and I was happy with that, so now we will look
to improve that bit more entering Phillip Island this weekend."
Bopping charged through the field on Friday to marginally miss
the podium in fourth, before Saturday saw him go one better for
third overall in his first podium showing of the season. It was a
positive start to the season after competing part-time so far this
year.
"I was really close to the podium on Friday, but things went a
lot smoother on Saturday which helped me get there," Bopping said.
"Team Motul Suzuki has been right behind me and the 2015 RM-Z450 is
such a great bike, so it's exciting to start the season like this
and now we look forward to Phillip Island."
