MCRMX Anaheim III Race Report

Spokane, Wash. (February 11, 2009) - The MotoConcepts race team (MCRMX) posted their best lites finish of the season as #801 Jeff Alessi and his CRF250 was the first Honda to cross the finish line taking 5th place.  In the 450 class Daniel McCoy completed his second main of the year finishing 16th overall.

“Track conditions weren’t the best,” stated team manager Steve Lamson.  “Both Jeff and Daniel had great heat races on a pretty slippery track.  They took a lot of confidence into the main and rode really consistent.

Teammates Cole Siebler and Ben Coisy did not fare as well throughout the rain shortened practice and heat races. Siebler took a spill during practice, injuring his knee and could not compete in his qualifying heat race.  Siebler #79 will not race this weekend in San Diego and will have his knee looked at back home in Boise Idaho.

Also injured Saturday was Frenchman Ben Coisy as he crashed during his heat race hurting his elbow enough to keep him out of the LCQ.  Coisy and his #979 Honda will be looking to get back on track this weekend.

Alessi’s 5th place finish moved him up in the AMA Supercross points standing to 9th overall in the 250 class.  Coisy is currently 15th in the 450 Supercross class followed by Siebler at 18th and McCoy at 23rd.

The team is currently preparing for the 7th round of the AMA Supercross series this weekend at San Diego’s Qualcomm Stadium.
