Promising young Spanish rider, Raul Sanchez who has had some good results on the 85cc and 125cc, has decided to step away from the sport.
Sanchez moved up to the EMX250 series last year with the F4E GasGas team but has announced he will stop racing at a high level.
We’d like to wish the young Spaniard all the best for the future!
“Today it’s time to say goodbye to the world of motocross, first of all to thank all those people who have helped me during all these years, who have been in this discipline for more than 14 years. I will never forget those moments in the paddock (my second home), many hours dedicated to this sport, a lot of effort and sacrifice. I knew that one day it could end and here the time has come.
I have made many friends in this sport and I don’t know how to thank each and every one of them, I have always enjoyed it a lot and I will always remember it. New stage in my life, and first of all I want to thank above all the best mother in the world that can exist for fighting these last 3 years so hard for me, for never letting me give up and always telling me to try again. Thank you eternally MOM! THANKS TO EVERYONE”.
