Winner Triumph Racing Australia Completes Opening Round Of ProMX Championship

WONTHAGGI, AUSTRALIA 

The Winner Triumph Racing Australia Team completed the opening round of the 2025 ProMX Championship at Wonthaggi, with valuable race experience across both MX1 and MX2 classes.As a home event for the team, support was huge from the local fans, as the All-New Triumph RC-450 hit the track with riders Jack Simpson and Seth Jackson for the first time in ProMX competition.

Jack Simpson, returning to Australian competition after years racing Off-Road in America, finished 21st Overall in the premier MX1 Class. Despite the challenging result, Simpson remains confident in his progression. Landing in 21st Overall, Jack is confident of the work ahead in regaining his speed and intensity in Motocross.

“I knew today would be tough, but I struggled across myself out there and also getting the bike where I wanted it. That’s to be expected with this being our first race, I’m not worried as I know what needs to be done before Appin and after a few more Rounds I know I can be in the mix inside the Top 10 with the other Factory riders”, commented Simpson. 

A career best for Seth Jackson in MX1 saw the young Victorian edging closer to scoring points each moto, which will be the goal for Appin in the coming weeks. 

In the MX2 Class, Thynan Kean demonstrated the potential of the Triumph TF250-X, running inside the top 10 placings in both motos on his way to 15th overall. With a day best 12th position, Kean is excited to keep things moving leaving Wonthaggi.

“I rode great in both motos but unfortunately towards the end of moto 1 we had a flat tyre, which with the big holes and square edges can happen. It was nice to rebound in moto 2 for 12th, I had a great time with the team today and we have an amazing group of people around us”, said Kean.

Connar Adams delivered consistent rides in MX2, narrowly missing out on the points scoring positions and Overall top 20, with results that did not fully reflect his speed and potential on the day.

With the Opening Round of ProMX in the books, the Winner Triumph Racing Australia Team have established a much-needed base to further test and develop the Triumph RC-450, as valuable race data will assist in progress for Appin in the coming weeks. 

The Winner Triumph Racing Australia Team now focus their attention on Round 2 of the ProMX Championship, taking place at Appin, NSW on Sunday 13th April.
