Australia’s Hunter Lawrence has been thoroughly impressive in his pre-season preparations as he gears up for his rookie season in the MX2 World Championship. Part of the Suzuki World MXGP squad managed by world motocross legend, Stefan Everts, the young Queenslander has topped strong contenders such as his teammate and MX2 title favourite, Jeremy Seewer, as he continues to familiarise himself with the factory Suzuki RM-Z250. Lawrence will make his offical MX2 World Championship debut at the season opening round of the series in Qatar on 25 February.
