The motocross community has been shaken by heartbreaking news from Spain as young talent Enzo Badenas has tragically lost his life following a training incident.
Badenas, just 17 years old, was part of the RFME GasGas structure throughout the 2025 season, competing in the highly competitive EMX125 series. He was preparing to step up to the EMX250 championship for 2026 – a move that highlighted both his promise and the confidence the Spanish federation had in his future.
We would like to extend our deepest condolences to Enzo’s family, friends, team members, and all who knew him during this incredibly difficult time.
The following statement confirmed the tragedy:
