Slovenian MXGP world champion Tim Gajser and Australian Mitch Evans can’t wait for the 2020 MXGP season to kick off.
The Team HRC team-mates are ready to take on the 2020 FIM motocross world championship, fresh off the back of their dominating performances in the Internazionali D’Italia where three-time world champion Gajser and Cairns-born rider Evans went 1-2 in the MX1 and Superfinal championships, winning all six races between them and leading all the laps of the races.
It has been a great start for the all new Honda CRF450RW which they have been testing in Sardinia, in preparation for the first round of the MXGP series in Matterley Basin, Great Britain on February 29-March 1.
