Honda Racing Australia will enter the 2025 Penrite ProMX Championship with the clear objective of defending all the MX1-MX3 and MXW belts it won last year.

Leading the way will be Korumburra’s Kyle Webster in MX1, who enjoyed a sensational 2024 with victory in the premier class and also winning the Motocross of Nations for Team Australia alongside with Jett and Hunter Lawrence. He’s now chasing a third Australian motocross title.

He will be joined by Wilson Todd on the starting gates, who had an injury-riddled 2024 and he is keen to come back strongly.

“Last year was tough as two injuries kept me sidelined for over eight months,” Todd said. “I appreciate the team sticking by me.

“I’ll be at Wonthaggi, but with less than three weeks on the bike, I’ll need to race myself back into fitness and speed.”

Brodie Connolly and Alex Larwood will again line up in Pirelli MX2, the former looking to continue his dominance from last year which saw him clinch the title by an astonishing 90 points.

“The team is great, training is going well, and I’ve got a new off-bike trainer who’s making a real difference,” Connolly said. “I feel much better prepared for this season.”

Charli Cannon will continue in EZILIFT MXW as she prepares to chase an unprecedented fourth consecutive championship. The 19-year old won all but one moto in 2024, exercising her authority as the rider to beat and made a stance as arguably the toughest competitor in ProMX.

“Last year we were strong, but I had weaknesses to address,” she explained. “Fitness has been my main focus — I don’t just want to win in Australia, I want to be ready for any overseas opportunities.”

The biggest change to the line-up is in the Maxxis MX3 class, with Kayd Kingsford replacing Jake Cannon who’s off to contest the EMX250 Motocross European Championship. Finishing third in the championship last season, the 17-year-old will look to establish himself as a title contender and prove he still has what it takes to fight at the front of the field.

“I was pumped to get this opportunity,” he said. “Honda’s MX3 program is proven — it won with Parker Ross and backed it up with Jake Cannon.

“Its MX2 success also gives me confidence that I’m on the best bike with a great team and I’m ready to chase this championship.”
