FMF/KTM’s Kurt Caselli was named the 2012 AMA/Kenda National Hare & Hound title winner after disputes were settled that had been raised during the final round in Lucerne Valley. Caselli won the round by a comfortable margin and Kawaskai’s David Pearson took second, which would have given him enough points to claim the championship. After the official review it was found that Pearson failed to adhere to rider fueling guidelines and he was penalized five-minutes for the infraction. With the additional time Pearson dropped to fifth in the results, giving Caselli a seven point advantage for the season.
