The Winner Triumph Racing Australia Team has completed Round 2 of the 2025 ProMX Championship, taking place in Appin, NSW. A “Mixed bag” of results across the 4 rider squad leaves the team with more data and direction to improve across the MX1 and MX2 Class riders performance leaving the hilly ruts of Appin behind.

MX1 rider Jack Simpson entered Round 2 with the goal of continuing to develop the All-New Triumph RC-450 in the race conditions of the highly competitive MX1 Class. With new suspension settings, a rejuvenated Simpson appeared with more speed and intensity at Appin, leading to a season best finish in Moto 2.

With 16-12 Moto scores for 14th Overall, Simpson commented on the day;

“Today was a huge step in the right direction for me”, said Simpson.

“The second Moto I had an average start but I passed forward into 12th and was able to start feeling the pace of the lead pack again. I’m still adjusting to racing for 25 minutes as opposed to 2 hours in off-road, but I’m enjoying finding my feet again in ProMX”, commented Simpson.

Seth Jackson continues to learn in his Rookie MX1 ProMX campaign, the young Victorian rider placing 29-24 Moto scores, with battles and track position inside the top 20.

In the MX2 Class, both team riders had a challenging day across the two Moto’s.

Thynan Kean battled through mid pack starts and mid race incidents to lodge 21-16 moto finishes, landing him in 18th Overall for the day.

Connar Adams continues to show speed and potential, with early race confidence and track position hindering his progress in the motos.

“I had a fun day here at Appin and kept it on two wheels. There’s a lot for me to work on and I know where we need to improve so I’m excited to keep working heading into Gillman”, commented Adams.

Winner Triumph Racing Australia now focus on the red sands of Gillman, SA, for Round 3 of the 2025 ProMX Championship taking place on Sunday April 27th.
