National #5 motocross title contender Mike Alessi and Alessi Racing Inc. will be combining forces with team Motoconcepts for the 2012 race season with their sights set firmly on racing at the highest level.

Mike Alessi will be competing on an RMZ 450 Suzuki built from parts and components that are available to the masses via race shops, the Internet, and retail dealers.

This effort will be a family effort (brothers Mike and Jeff Alessi) with the support of team Motoconcepts, who in itself, is a supplier of off road accessory items for motorcycle racers world wide.

"This is an exciting opportunity for me" says Mike Alessi "Mike Genova and Motoconcepts is providing me with the infrastructure to build and manage my own race program."

The combined forces of Mike Alessi, Alessi Racing Inc. and Motoconcepts is a new and innovative approach to a rider and team relationship that may set a new standard in both Supercross and Motocross racing world wide.

So does this leave Jake Canada out in the cold or will he still be involved with Motoconcepts? According to DV Canada signed a letter of intent with the team for 2012.

On second thought maybe Canada should follow DV's lead and run for the hills.

I thought Jeff couldn't wait to get to the south east and on his own program. I hope this doesnt keep him from being the best that he can be. Good luck to all.

Maybe Suzuki had some old 5's lying around, and KTM had some old 800's, and both OEM's figured it was enough to swap riders and they stick with the same plates.

Some people just want to pick things apart at any cost even at the risk of looking stupid as hell. Kind of a won the battle but lost the war deal.

Thier #5, let the misspelled words and bad grammar roll. When I read "National #5" it leads me to believe that the rider's number is #5. Maybe years ago that would have correlated to point standings but that is not true these days. Certainly "fifth ranked" would have been the correct terminology.
