IN THE WIND P34 Noren, Decotis Complete JGRMX Suzuki Team F redrik Noren and Jimmy Decotis are the latest additions to the JGRMX/Yo- shimura Suzuki Factory Racing Team. Noren, who filled in this year for the team in the outdoor MX series in the 450cc class, will return as a full-time rider again in the 450cc class in both super- cross and motocross, joining already signed Joey Savatgy, who will miss the first few rounds with a foot injury. Decotis is also returning to the JGRMX team as a two-time podium finisher in the 250cc class with the squad in 2018. Decotis joins Alex Martin as the team's second 250cc rider. Decotis will com- pete in the 250SX East Championship and Martin the West Championship. Both will also compete in select 450SX events. "Freddie and Jimmy D are going to be great additions to the team as they join Joey and Alex, and I am excited to see what they've got in store," said Jeremy Albrecht, Team Manager. "Freddie rides so comfortably on the RM-Z, and it showed during last season. Jimmy D's been a JGR fan-favorite for some time, and we're thrilled to get him back on yellow to grab more po- diums. Overall, we have a strong team this year. I am confident in each rider as they bring speed and strength to the track." "I'm really excited to represent the JGRMX/Yoshimura Suzuki Factory Racing team in both 450 and 250 Supercross," said Decotis. "I've fought really hard these last few years to keep improving and progressing as a racer. Although I'll be competing in the 250 division and challenge for race wins, I'm eager to make the step up to the 450 class for several rounds and get race experience against the best in the world. I'm extremely thankful for the opportunity that JGRMX and Suzuki have provided." CN Fredrik Noren returns as a full-time 450cc rider for the JGRMX/ Yoshimura Suzuki Factory Racing Team.
