Ride Red Honda’s Jet Alsop has emerged from Round 3 of the 2025 ProMX Championship with 2nd Overall in the MX3 Class, with 2-4 Moto scores allowing the young QLD rider to claim the 2nd step on the podium. 

Another consistent day started with the 4th fastest time in MX3 Group 1, with the crucial gate pick for the Gillman left 180 degree first turn on Alsop’s mind in the mornings session. 

“I’ve been working hard on my starts and everyone knows the Gillman first turn, you have to qualify well and line up on the inside”, said Alsop. 

“I wouldn’t say they are “fixed” but I was able to muscle my way through the first few turns in both moto’s and be in the lead pack battle which was new for me this season.”

Early race passes in Moto 1 saw Alsop move his way into 3rd position, when late race issues for Kye Woods would open up 2nd position on the closing laps.

In moto 2, more passes and hard charging laps would lead to 4th position, where consistency would pay off, rewarding Alsop with 2nd Overall.

“Honestly I am a little disappointed with today. My starts were better, but we are still working towards building back to where I want to be and that is challenging for race wins. The consistency is great and that right now is the focus, we are slowly ticking boxes and I’m grateful to walk away 3rd in the Championship moving closer to 2nd”, concluded Alsop. 

Jet Alsop now focuses on Round 4 of the ProMX Championship, taking place at Traralgon, Vic on Sunday 25th. 

Alsop Focused On Starts And Track Position Ahead Of ProMX Gillman

Ride Red Honda’s Jet Alsop comes into Gillman, SA for Round 3 of the 2025 ProMX Championship sitting 3rd in the MX3 Class after a consistent start to the season. With Starts and early race track position hindering his results, Alsop comes into Gillman with a clear focus on executing solid gate drops when racing begins on Sunday.

“Following Appin, I knew my starts really needed some attention and I’m not going to take the next step with my results until we execute the gate drops when it counts”.

“We have spent the last few weeks figuring out my start technique and I’m really happy with where we are at. Gillman is a very start dependent track at times with the 180 left hand first turn, so the importance of a good start here to battle for the lead early will be key”, said Alsop.

Alongside the ProMX calendar, Alsop took his Ride Ride Honda to victory at the Connondale natural terrain series last weekend in the MX2 Class, further boosting Jet’s confidence in his return to form season.

“Connondale was great and I was able to come out on top in the MX2 class. As I keep saying we have a game plan this season to build momentum and confidence on the new Honda and the next step is to get some starts and run up front with Woods and Kingsford if the opportunity is there”, concluded Alsop.

With a core group of sponsors complementing the Honda Ride Red support program and Jed Parsons MX Development infrastructure, Alsop continues to build towards an MX3 Championship run in 2025. 

Round 3 of the 2025 ProMX Championship will take place in Gillman, SA on Sunday April 27th. The event is broadcast across free-to-air coverage on SBS and streaming platform SBS On Demand along with the ProMX TV livestream coverage.

Kawasaki Australia claimed double podium finishes on Sunday at Appin for Round 2 of the 2025 ProMX Championship. Penrite Racing Empire Kawasaki’s Luke Clout took 3rd Overall in the MX1 Class and Penrite Racing Go24 Team Green Kawasaki rider Cooper Rowe had a career best 3rd Overall in the MX3 Class.

In the MX1 Class, Luke Clout showed his speed and confidence in the rutted conditions early in the day by logging the 2nd fastest time in the Superpole session, just 0.234 seconds out of pole position. 

Pulling the Holeshot in the Opening Moto, Clout would lead for the first five laps before being shuffled back to 3rd position in the battle for the lead , where he would stay for the remainder of the race.

In Moto 2, a poor start saw Clout charge through the field on the opening lap before settling into 4th position. Laying down the fastest laps of the field mid race, Clout eventually passed into 3rd position to take 3-3 Moto scores and 3rd Overall for Round 2.

“I had some really good speed today and finally felt like myself on the bike again and it showed. The bike is great and the team has been amazing. I’m frustrated because we were the fastest bike on track in the final moto but my start meant I couldn’t challenge for the win,” said Clout.

“We gained good points today and that’s great for the Championship so I’m happy and we are onto Gillman now for Round 3”, concluded Clout.

In the MX2 Class, Ryan Alexanderson would battle hard all day, pulling great starts and track position, but struggling to execute clean laps on the technical Appin track. With 8-9 Moto scores, Alexanderson would settle for 9th Overall in MX2.

Cooper Rowe excelled at Appin, the young MX3 Class rider taking a career best 3rd overall as a member of the Brett Metcalfe managed Go24 Team Green Kawasaki program. 

With 5-3 moto scores, Rowe’s speed and consistency rewarded him with an overall podium.

“Ive been working hard for a long time and to achieve this 3rd Overall is an amazing feeling for me, my family and the entire Go24 Team Green program. Thanks to everyone involved, I can’t wait for more of this throughout the season”, said Rowe. 

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