Australia has done it again! The all-Honda lineup of Jett Lawrence, Hunter Lawrence, and Kyle Webster went full throttle at the 2025 Motocross of Nations (MXoN), held this year at Ironman Raceway in Indiana, USA, and walked away as back-to-back world champions.
That’s right, the same trio that gave Australia its first-ever MXoN win in 2024 just repeated the feat, proving their dominance wasn’t a one-off. Riding Honda’s mighty CRF machines under the Honda HRC Progressive banner, the boys put on an absolute clinic in front of a roaring U.S. crowd.
The “Olympics of Motocross”
For the uninitiated, the MXoN is basically the “Olympics” of motocross. Nations send three riders each, across three classes (MXGP, MX2, and Open), to duke it out for global bragging rights.
This year, Jett took on the MXGP class, Hunter raced Open, and Webster tackled MX2. All riders aboard work-spec Hondas prepped by the same HRC crew that’s been rewriting motocross history all year long.

Dominance, Aussie-style
Jett wasted no time setting the tone, winning the first moto outright and backing it up with a solid P3 in the final race. Hunter, meanwhile, was in beast mode despite a few small tip-overs. He went 1-1 in his motos to take Open class honours.
Webster had a rougher path, getting tangled in first-turn pileups in both motos. But the Aussie grit shone through; he charged back through the pack for 15-13 finishes, securing valuable points that sealed Australia’s overall win.
When the dust settled, Team Australia finished on 19 points, comfortably ahead of Team USA’s 33.
Shimoda’s Strong 450 Debut
Over on Team Japan, Jo Shimoda made headlines of his own. Normally a 250 rider, Jo jumped on a CRF450RWE for his first-ever race in the bigger class and he delivered.
He ripped a holeshot in moto two, finished second, and backed it up with sixth in the last moto, helping Japan land 11th overall. Not bad for a guy who’s only had a handful of rides on the 450.

Honda Power Everywhere
Honda’s presence was massive this weekend. From Tim Gajser (Slovenia) to Ruben Fernandez (Spain), Bernardo Tiburcio (Brazil), and Yuki Okura (Japan), the red bikes were flying in every corner of the track. It was a reminder of how deep Honda’s talent pool and commitment run across continents.
Honda’s Continuing Success
Two years. Two wins. One unstoppable team.
Honda’s global synergy, from Australia to America, Japan to Europe, once again showed why the Red Riders remain the gold standard in motocross.
Australia’s victory isn’t just another trophy; it’s a statement.
