It was the best of nights and the worst of nights for the high-profile Kawasaki supercross team riders in Auckland on Saturday night.
American Josh Hansen (Kawasaki KX450F) won Saturday night’s fourth round of the Monster Energy Australasian Super X Championships – the first of only two rounds to be raced in New Zealand this season -- and extended his lead to 32 points over main rival Jay Marmont (CDR Rockstar Yamaha YZ450F), but a deathly hush fell over the noisy stadium earlier in the evening when top Kiwi hope Ben Townley (Kawasaki KX450F) crashed to the stadium floor with a dislocated hip.
The Taupo rider was rushed to hospital and is now faces a grim recovery period as he fights to be fit again in time for the start of the MX1 Motocross World Championships in Bulgaria on April 10.
