Todd Waters and the Raceline Husqvarna TDUB Racing Team recorded a top-10 result in Round 5 of the 2026 Australian ProMX Championship at Appin on Sunday, overcoming challenging conditions throughout the day to maintain fifth position in the MX1 standings.

Waters entered the New South Wales round fresh from an impressive fourth-place finish in Toowoomba and was looking to build on that momentum aboard his Husqvarna FC 450. He qualified fifth fastest with a 1:54.108 lap-time, placing himself firmly in contention from the outset.

The former MX1 Champion backed that up with fifth place in the Pole Shootout, before racing to sixth in the opening moto. A ninth-place finish in Moto 2 earned Waters eighth overall for the round, while also allowing him to retain fifth position in the standings after five rounds.

“It was an interesting day at Appin,” commented Waters. "I felt pretty comfortable on the bike and P5 in qualifying, as well as P5 in the Pole Shootout, was good. Then in Moto 1, I ripped a good start, came out third, and was cruising along, before [Nathan] Crawford passed me, and I was just like, ‘Man, I need to step it up.’ So I started to send it a bit and I went down – just a silly little crash. Three riders went past me, so I made my way back by them and had a killer battle with [Zac] Watson. Then in Moto 2, I went down and came from outside the top-15 back to P9, but the boys were gone out front. So yeah, I just floated around, and that was a pretty boring race for me, actually. Eyes forward to Traralgon next month.”

In addition, Raceline-supported Ryder Madafiglio continued his impressive form by claiming victory in the MX65 Futures category, with the rising talent now set to represent Australia at the FIM Junior Motocross World Championship in the Czech Republic from July 3-5.

Next Race: July 12 – Traralgon, VIC
