Mosig Consistent For Conondale
National Pump Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team MX1 pilot Kade Mosig again proved himself as a championship front-runner with a strong fourth overall at the seventh round of the 2016 MX Nationals at Conondale, Queensland, on Sunday.
The Victorian was in top form from the outset when he posted the fourth fastest time in Super Pole around the rain-drenched Green Park circuit.
In the opening race Mosig enjoyed a great start aboard the 2016 KX450F and rode a smooth and consistent race around an increasingly challenging track to finish the 30-minute-plus-two-lap race with a well-deserved third place.
Mosig then backed up his podium performance with a hard-fought fourth position in the second MX1 race. After another great start, Mosig maintained the balance between aggression and smooth, disciplined riding around the rough, technical track to finish his day in fourth overall.
“I always enjoy coming to Conondale and today was a decent day in challenging conditions,” Mosig reflected. “It would’ve been nice to have finished on the podium, but I’m happy to come out of the weekend with a good haul of points and will look to keep building on it as the series enters the home stretch.”
Mosig’s solid points’ haul from Conondale has seen him move up to fourth overall in the MX1 championship chase, tied on points with his National Pump Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team teammate Matt Moss. Both Matt and Jake Moss were absent from the Conondale round due to personal reasons.
The eighth round of the 2016 MX Nationals will be held at Shepparton in Victoria on Sunday, 31 July.
