Team France announced for 2011 Motocross of Nations

The French Federation announced in Loket, at Czech Republic Grand Prix of Motocross, the selected team members of "Team France" for the MX of Nations, which is in France this coming September.

The team that will race at the circuit in St. Jean d'Angely will be the same as two years ago in Italy, with Marvin Musquin, Steven Frossard and Gautier Paulin. All three very talented riders, with Musquin being the current MX2 World Motocross Champion, although now racing in the USA for KTM. Team France is aiming for another victory, ten years after their last win at the famous circuit in Namur, Belgium in 2001.

Women's AMA Motocross National Championship numbers for 2011 season

Beginning last season, MX Sports Pro Racing implemented a new numbering system for the Women's AMA National Motocross championship. In years past, riders selected their numbers based on availability and order of selection was determined by where a rider finished in the standings the previous season. While the champion was designated to wear the number one plate, all other competitors were permitted to select any number that was available.

The 2010 campaign marked the debut of a new numbering system that determines a rider's number by where she finished the previous season. As a result, one's finishing position in the championship would serve as her number for the following season.

While Women's MX Champion Jessica Patterson will enter 2011 with the #1 plate on her bike, jersey and helmet, below is a list of the remaining numbers for next season's MotorcycleUSA Women's Motocross Championship in accordance to each woman's position in the final standings for 2010:

RJ Says: Give me a break in between supercross and motocross

Is the combined supercross / motocross season of today's era too long?

As a former supercross and motocross racer, I don't think the season is too long. Racers want to race.

But I would like to see a couple of changes that I think will make it better for the riders, teams, and most importantly, the fans.

First, I'd like to see a much longer break in between the end of the Supercross season, and the start of the MX season.

I think it would be great if the riders could have at least a couple off weekends off after the supercross season ends. One of the reasons is they could do more 'outdoor' testing at that time, instead of during supercross season.
