FIM Europe is saddened to announce that Steven Lenoir has died today after a crash during qualifying at Cassel, in France.
The 25 year-old French rider had won the European Championship in EMX2 in 2010 (the photos, @Youthstream, show him in this occasion).
In 2015 he had won also the MX2 British Championship. He was currently second in the British MX1 championship. Today he was preparing for a race in Cassel, in memory of Tim Potisek: a race that he had won in 2015.
Lenoir is reported to have had a huge crash this morning in practice and was airlifted to hospital in Lille. But it has now been confirmed he passed away.
To his family and friends, the condolences of FIM Europe.
