JPM Motorsports Honda Shines in Canberra with Alsop’s Breakthrough Win and Strong 8th from Yokoyama
Canberra, ACT
Fresh from Los Angeles and the X Games High Air contest with JPM Motorsports Honda team partner Corey Creed, the JPM team headed straight to Round 6 of the 2025 ProMX Championship in Canberra.
Continuing their rise as one of the top-performing privateer teams in the paddock, Canberra did not disappoint and served as the backdrop for Jet Alsop to deliver a breakthrough moto win and second overall in MX3, while Haruki Yokoyama posted his most consistent day of the season in MX2 to finish eighth overall.
In the MX3 Class, Jet Alsop qualified fourth and set himself up well for the day’s motos. In Moto 1, a poor start saw him outside the top 20 early, but he pushed forward with impressive speed to climb through the pack and finish third.
Moto 2 was a different story. Alsop nailed the start and quickly got into the battle for the lead. He went bar-to-bar with championship rival Kayd Kingsford, eventually taking control and holding on for his first moto victory of the 2025 season.
The strong 3-1 moto scores handed him second overall for the round and moved him to third in the MX3 championship standings.
“I’ve been saying that when I finally get a start, I have the speed to challenge for wins and today we backed that up,” said Alsop.
“I was extremely disappointed after Moto 1, charging from outside the top 20 to 3rd, knowing I had more in me. I wasn’t giving that up in Moto 2 and had an epic battle with Kayd. I’m looking forward to more of this for the rest of the season. Huge thanks to Ride Red Honda and JPM Racing for their support.”
In the MX2 Class, Haruki Yokoyama delivered another strong showing aboard his JPM Honda. After qualifying 9th, he fought hard for 10th in Moto 1 and followed that up with a well earned sixth in Moto 2 to claim eighth overall for the round.
Yokoyama showed strong pace throughout the day and was a constant presence inside the top ten, building confidence heading into the final two rounds in Queensland.
“I enjoyed the track in Canberra and the conditions reminded me of some of the tracks in Japan,” said Yokoyama.
“I felt like I was battling riders all day inside the top ten. I know I’m capable of more, but eighth overall is a solid result for myself and the JPM Motorsports Honda Team heading into the final two rounds.”
With momentum building in both MX3 and MX2, JPM Motorsports Honda continues to make its mark as a standout privateer program in the 2025 ProMX Championship.
