Kawasaki Motors Australia press release:

National Pump Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team’s Kade Mosig has further consolidated his position near the front of the 2016 MX Nationals championship with a brace of fourth positions at Shepparton, Victoria, on Sunday.

At the venue where he claimed the round win last year, the Victorian-born Mosig had a very consistent day around the demanding, technical track.

After finishing fourth in Super Pole, Mosig and his 2016 KX450F then backed up that result with fourth-place finishes in both 30-minute plus two-lap races.

The result has also seen him cement his top four MX1 championship position, but he knows he still has work to do to break into the top three before the season’s out.

“To be honest I’m not overly pumped with my results today, but I was consistent and fourth position seems to be where I’ve landed myself throughout the year,” Mosig reflected. “I struggled a lot in the first moto but we made some big changes between races and I found a lot of speed and intensity in the second race and could push a bit harder.

“The pace of the top three riders this year is definitely fast and I’m enjoying trying to find the levels in myself and pushing those levels every week. We’ve got a bit more to find to break into the top three, but I know I can do it and I believe in myself and the team around me. We’ll keep our heads down, work hard, and hopefully we can get on the podium over the next two rounds.”

The 2016 MX Nationals now heads into a three-week break before the final two Queensland races at Toowoomba and Coolum are held on back-to-back weekends, starting on 21 August. Mosig’s currently fourth in the standings following eight rounds.
