Justin Barcia would like to race MXGP full-time.

I’ve always been interested in racing the world championship at some time and after two frustrating seasons in the US I need a new challenge,” he said. “Team places are scarce in the US – the same as in GPs – but I’ve got all my own clothing sponsors so I wouldn’t need a salary, just bonus. 

“I contacted Kawasaki back in the summer but they decided to go with the Belgian kid. All I want is a competitive bike and I’ll be right up there again.”
