Andrews of Fred Andrews Racing (FAR) announced that team racer Jason
Thomas has chosen to leave the FAR Husqvarna team effective immediately.
Citing personal reasons for his departure, Thomas plans to return home
to England to be with his family. 

"He
was a guy that gave us his all," Andrews stated of Thomas. "He pushed
hard through injuries and rode with a lot of heart. We enjoyed some
really great results together over the years and we're sorry to see it
end, but we're still looking forward to finishing out a strong season in
National Enduro and GNCC with Andrew DeLong." 

"It's
obviously never a good thing to have a situation like this mid-season,
but we respect the fact that Jason has to do what's best for him,"
commented Husqvarna Product and Racing Manager, Derek Sorenson. "We wish
him well and will always be grateful for the great results he gave us." 

The
FAR Husqvarna team has plans to replace Thomas with another rider for
the remainder of the 2012 National Enduro and GNCC series'. No decisions
have been made at this point, but an announcement will be issued
shortly.
