Mike Alessi gets in trouble with AMA for his behaviour on the track now in practice he and his teammate cant even practice together. I know when you have top flight athletes together there are bound to be issues but it seems this kid just attracts them. I hope he doesn't burn himself up before he can use his real riding skills to prove me wrong
I am sure there are definately 2 sides to this story but why is Mikey always in the middle of the problems

More from Ping: There was drama at the KTM test track this week during a routine test session. Mike Alessi and Josh Hansen were both testing and preparing for the upcoming SX season. According to Hansen, Alessi was "being cocky" by looking over at him off the triples. The tension came to a head later that day as the two were practicing starts together. Here’s Josh’s side of the story; I’m sure Mike has a different opinion:
"We kept practicing starts, and I think he was mad because I kept beating him to the first turn. He would come into the first corner and run into the back of me. He kept doing it. Then he brake-checked me one time when he got a better start than me. It was so stupid, because we’re on the same team and we were just practicing. So after he brake-checked me, I came flying into the turn and nailed him. We almost got in a fight right there. The mechanics jumped in to make sure nothing happened, so I was over it. I started riding laps again and he came flying into me and took me out in a corner. I got up and chased him down and blew him off the track in the same turn. I had to just load up and leave or I was going to end up throwing blows with him and his dad."
Maybe they should hire Dr Phil to manage the team
