MotoSport.com and Crossland Motorsports are pleased to announce the signing of three riders to the MotoSport.com/GPI/Honda Racing team: Colt Nichols, Kyle Peters and Chase Marquier.

Colt Nichols, from Muskogee, OK is the current Costa Rican champion and a past AMSOIL Arenacross rider. He plans to compete in the Supercross 250SX East class in a few weeks when the series starts in Arlington, TX. He’ll also be competing in the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross series this summer.

Kyle Peters, from Greensboro, NC and the 2011 Loretta Lynn’s 250A champion, is also riding in the Supercross 250SX East class. Chase Marquier, from Newcastle, OK, already started in the Arenacross West Lites class where he is currently in third-place for points after Round 1. The MotoSport.com/GPI/Honda racing team will also back Marquier in the Amateur Nationals this year.

The three riders join Fredrik Noren and Tommy Hahn who are currently competing in the 2015 Monster Energy Supercross series. Noren, the 2010 Swedish National Champion, placed 17th in the 450SX class on Saturday in Oakland. He’ll finish out the final two rounds of Supercross on the West Coast and remain in California as a test rider for Honda and begin training for the 2015 Motocross season. He finished 10th overall in the 2014 series for the Factory Honda Outdoors team.

Hahn complements Peters in the 250SX West class where he’s made every Main event and is currently in 12th-place for points.

“MotoSport is excited to have these talented riders under our banner and we look forward to watching them grow and helping in their success,” said MotoSport.com Director of Marketing Jarrod Rogers. “We’re building a solid team foundation with Crossland and these three riders help cement things into place.

As with all riders, MotoSport will closely follow the team and it’s riders over the course of the season. The video series AIRTIME, which chronicles the team, is three episodes in and is already developing a following. The addition of the three riders to the team provides even more dynamics to the racing season and brings greater insight for fans of racing as they follow the riders and their trek for success.

Additional team support includes commitments from FMF, Rekluse, Acerbis, BELL Helmets, Dunlop Tires, RK Chains, Excel Rims, Sunstar Sprockets, Dubya Wheels, ODI Bars and Grips, Factory FX, Showa Suspension and Proven Racing Motors.

Wow, great to see a start up team being all in. I know they were around last year with Top Jimmy, but they're really going all out!

Good stuff! More rides is always good in my book. Never heard of Marquier but Peters and Nichols seems like great guys. A lot of positive attitude in that team.
