Team Motul Suzuki teammates Matt Moss and Lawson Bopping enter
this weekend's final round of the 2014 Australian Supercross
Championship positioned 1-2 in the premier SX1 category, competing
on board the 2015 model Suzuki RM-Z450.
The fifth and final round will take place this Saturday night, 8
November, at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre - the first indoor
event the sport has hosted nationally since 2009.
Reigning champion Moss has been flawless in his title defence to
date, winning all four rounds contested and carrying a 22-point
lead into the final race of the year. Earlier in 2014 he already
wrapped up a second consecutive MX Nationals title.
"Winning the first four rounds was an awesome way to start the
season and I really want to finish it off with a win indoors," Moss
commented. "Everybody is pumped for the entertainment centre event
and it gives us a really good chance to race with the crowd
up-close.
"The 2015 Suzuki RM-Z450 has delivered the whole way ever since
I first rode it, so along with the team and all of our supporters
hopefully we can take home another championship tomorrow
night."
Bopping has also been in exceptional form, scoring a pair of
podiums in the opening four rounds upon return to the
factory-supported Suzuki outfit. He is tied for second entering
Saturday's decider.
"It's been a really positive season for me back with Team Motul
Suzuki, so hopefully we can finish on a high this weekend and give
the team a 1-2 in the championship," Bopping said. "Indoor racing
is always hard-fought, so starts will be as important as ever and
I'm just excited to go racing."
Entering the final round at Brisbane Entertainment Centre on 8
November, defending champion Moss carries a 22-point advantage due
to his perfect season to date, with Bopping tied for second after a
consistent effort across the season.
