AUSTRALIA WINS MXoN; USA 2nd
Australia won the MX of Nations for the first time in history this weekend at Matterley Basin in Great Britain. The team of Jett Lawrence, Hunter Lawrence and Kyle Webster trailed after two of the three races, but the combined MXGP/Open race put both Hunter and Jett On the track at the same time, and they finished 2-4 to clinch the overall. That final race was led early by Eli Tomac, who eventually gave way to an incredible race between Jett Lawrence and Tim Gajser.
