The Jed Beaton train remains firmly on the tracks after round six of the ProMX with another dominant round win under his belt at Traralgon. Beaton now has racked up five round wins, from the six contested and won 11 of the 12 motos to be in a strong position in the MX1 championship.

Beaton had his work cut out for him in race won when his archrival, Kyle Webster, charged to the front of the field. For the first 15 minutes, the pair freight trained around the sand Traralgon track, Webster leading the way and Beaton within a couple of seconds and keeping him well in sight,

Then the race intensified. With just under 10 minutes left on the clock, Beaton upped the work rate and put in a charge that bought him all the way to the rear tyre of Webster, and he began to pile on the pressure. Webster then made a mistake and went down, leaving Beaton to ride away to the finish line and take the moto win.

The second moto saw teammate Aaron Tanti led the field around and he looked sensational up front in the opening exchanges. But like moto one, Beaton moved forward and got within striking distance of his fellow CDR Yamaha rider only to see Tanti go down in the very same spot Webster did and race one and leave Beaton with the race lead and he didn’t let it go.

With two rounds remaining, Beaton now leads the MX1 championship by 64 points over Webster, with Tanti a single point further back in third.

“I probably didn’t ride great in the first moto to be honest, and I just had in in my mind to get through race one and then really attack in race two. And I don’t even know why I was thinking that but just seemed to be in my head this morning,” Beaton laughs.

“So, to finish the day with another 1-1 and increase the lead was a good result and awesome to do it with some many people here to cheer me on. The boys out the back with the chain saws were waving me on every lap and its good we are getting some passion support at the races. It makes for a better day.

“Thanks to the team for all the hard way and days like today are never easy and hopefully we get some warmer weather at the final two rounds in Queensland,” he signs off.

Another round and another podium for Aaron Tanti who continues to be the real quite achieve in the MX1 class this year. Tanti has been humming along nicely in 2026 and has become a podium regular now that he is back to full health and fitness.

Tanti finished the day on 40 points with a 3-3 result. He shared the same number of points for the round with Nathan Crawford (4-2) and Kyle Webter (2-4) but with the better finish in the final moto being the decider, it was Crawford in second, Tanti in third and Webster fourth.

“Getting on the podium is a good result for me and happy to come away third,” Tanti begins. “Sand based tracks like this have never been my greatest strength so to put in two solid rides and even lead race two for a while made it a good day and it was important I didn’t lose any points to Kyle in the championship.

“I’m really enjoying racing at the moment, and the team is working well. Jed and I have been on the podium together a few times this year and it’s a good reward for the guys doing all the work behind the scenes.”
