Yamaha high-flyer Jed Beaton now has a vice-like grip on the 2026 Penrite ProMX Championship presented by AMX Superstores (ProMX) after yet another dominant performance, this time in Traralgon on July 12.
Beaton’s 1-1 scorecard – his fifth clean sweep in six rounds – on the Monster Energy CDR Yamaha in the Kawasaki MX1 class has extended his lead to 64pts over defending champion Kyle Webster, with Aaron Tanti 1pt further back in third.
Nathan Crawford (4-2) was second overall in round six from Aaron Tanti (3-3).
In the MX2 class, Alex Larwood (Honda Racing Australia) has personified determination in 2026, and his eighth and ninth victories of the MX2 season showed more of that mettle as he got the job done ahead of teammate and main rival Kayd Kingsford who again piled on the pressure.
Larwood is now 16pts (259 to 243) ahead of Kingsford with two rounds remaining, so delicately poised heading into the business end of the season – and with KTM Factory Racing pair Byron Dennis (216pts) and Dylan Walsh (207pts) also remaining as genuine contenders.
Dennis (7-3) was third overall in Traralgon after finishing on equal points with Walsh (5-4), while Seth Burchell (Monster Energy WBR Yamaha, 4-7) was next.
