Justin Brayton is set to return to MotoConcepts Honda in 2022 for what will be his final season of Monster Energy Supercross after spending this season under the Muc-Off Honda tent.

Brayton will reunite with the team that helped him to a historic win at the Daytona Supercross, teaming back up with owner Mike Genova and team manager Tony Alessi, both of whom he’s excited to work with again.

“Mike Genova and I have had a great relationship from the time we met and I’m excited to be back alongside him and the MCR team,” Brayton explained. “I’ve learned a lot from him not only at the races but outside of racing as well.

“We’ve maintained our close friendship the past couple years even when I haven’t been on the team. My trust in Tony Alessi as the team manager is very high so I couldn’t be happier to be back with the team that helped me win the Daytona Supercross. It’s an exciting time in my career.”

Genova shares Brayton’s excitement, with the veteran from Iowa completing the first piece of their team for the 2022 season, which is expected to be announced in the near future.

“Justin has a charisma that fans and industry professionals are drawn to,” Genova commented. “I have a great amount of respect for Justin as a racer, and as a person. He is high caliber in every category, fits the belief system, and models what MCR is about foundationally.

“I’m excited to work with Justin again and am confident we’re going to be competitive while having a lot of fun during the 2022 season.”

It’s not yet clear who will fill the vacated seat left by Brayton on the Muc-Off Honda team – if it continues to field a team in the US next year – for the 2022 Monster Energy Supercross season.
