Team Suzuki Press Office – November 25th.
Ben Townley – 1st.
Suzuki World MXGP rider Ben Townley made his racing comeback with a hat-trick of wins at Thursday evening’s New Zealand Supercross Championship at Winton.
The former MX World Champion, who has now settled back in New Zealand with his young family after a year in Europe – and a season plagued with injuries - is now working as a brand ambassador for Suzuki New Zealand and only plans to race selected events through the summer.
But on Thursday evening, racing a borrowed RM-Z450 from Winton Motorcycles, the 31-year-old showed his class by winning all three races from NZ Motocross Champion Cody Cooper, former GP rider Josh Coppins and regular front-runner Rhys Carter.
