Raceline Pirelli Suzuki’s Lawson Bopping wants to keep momentum on his side, following a magnificent first Monster Energy Super X Pro Open podium in Sydney last Saturday night.

The 21-year-old rookie finished second overall behind Jay Marmont in the Triple Header main event, winning the first final before backing that result up with 5-2 finishes.

Bopping was flawless aboard the 2012 model Suzuki RM-Z450 on his way to victory in the first seven-lap final, continuing his form that had already seen him win two heat races so far this season.

“The whole weekend went good for me and I’m stoked to be on the podium,” Braidwood resident Bopping said. “Winning the first final was a good feeling for me, so it was a great night.

“Hopefully I can keep the momentum on my side. Every round has been better and better, so with two more rounds to go I’ll hopefully keep doing what I’ve been doing.”

Bopping now sits sixth in the standings despite a DNF in the mud at Melbourne’s season opener last month.
