Just as the riders have finished dusting off the sand from a tricky round of racing at Murray Bridge, they will put their gear on and roar back into action when the fifth round of the 2014 Monster Energy MX Nationals hits Wanneroo this Sunday.

The MX Nationals makes its way out to the West for the second time in three years, and the WA fans are sure to turn out in their droves to witness the best that Australian motocross has to offer.

After an unpredictable round four held in South Australia, the sand in WA is likely to claim a few more scalps as the championship reaches its halfway point of.

Both leaders in the MX1 and MX2 classes gave up some ground in the outright standings at round four, and with the WA event reverting back to the three-moto format, every point will be worth fighting for.

It’s also been confirmed this afternoon that Penrite Honda Racing has called upon former world champion Ben Townley to replace injured fellow New Zealand rider Cody Cooper aboard the factory-supported CRF450R.

Young local rider Kyle Webster has been given a wildcard entry into the MX2 class in WA, following an impressive second place result in the MXD class at round four.

If you are coming down to watch the action, tickets are available at the gate, with practice starting at 8:30am, followed by racing commencing at 10:30am.
