Mitch Evans will start in the MXGP class as expected, while Hunter Lawrence will do his best in the MX2 class. His younger brother and current leader of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross MX2 Championship will try his luck in the open class. The team manager is Michael Byrne.

“This is a great team with talented drivers who are willing to give it their all for their country. Having Jed and Hunter ride a track they know in the US is a huge advantage and with Mitch in MX1 we see this trio as a red hot opportunity to take home our first MXoN title. We all wish the Australian team the best!
