KAWASAKI Motocross Team’s Kenneth San Andres stamped his class anew in the fourth leg of the 2013 Namssa National Motocross Developmen­t Program on Sunday, sweeping both the Pro Open and Pro 125 events at Speedworld MXCircuit, SMBicutan.

After three legs of the series held under the auspices of the National Motorcycle Sports and Safety Associatio­n (Namssa), San Andres totes a perfect 150 points in leading the premier Pro Open category. Each stage win is worth 50 points, built around two moto races of 25 points each.

Using a Kawasaki KXF 2014 model, San Andres quashed the challenge of Bebet dela Cruz and Ralf Ramento in the Pro Open (MX1), be- fore repeating the trick against the same foes in the Pro 125 (MX2).

“It was imperative on me to go all out in the two motos in preparatio­n for the Asian meet this September,” said San Andres.

San Andres, the reigning Namssa Rider of the Year, is coming off a sweep of both the Pro Open and Pro 125 categories of the national series’ third leg.

The Valenzuela native, who is backed by Oakley Phils., Fox Phils., Go Pro, Leatt Neck Brace, Bridgeston­e Tires, Motul Phils. Polisport, Foilacar Manila, Kia Global, R33 Car Exchange, HJC Helmet, P. Boys, Laus Auto Group and JBS Motorcycle Parts and Accessorie­s, also paces the Pro 125 division with a leading 150 points.
