Sad passing of Massimo Sironi

The FIM Europe is saddened to inform about the passing of Massimo Sironi after two though years of fight against a disease.

He has been part of the FIM Europe Family from 2008 to 2018 as member of the Vintage Commission.

He was a great Enduro lover, who lived the motorsport with enthusiasm and dedication, involving family and friends in his passion and adventures.

Founder and active member of the Motoclub Scuderia Norelli, he was President from 2003 to 2007 and then from 2021 until his passing. He made the “Valli Bergamasche Revival” an international event well-known and appreciated all over the world.

Popular and familiar figure within the Italian motorcycling community, Massimo will be hugely missed by the entire FIM Europe Family, who extends its condolences to his family and many friends at this difficult time.

Alessandro Sambuco, FIM Europe General Secretary

“I met Massimo many years ago and I can say with certainty that he is one of the biggest Enduro enthusiasts I have ever known. He was proud to belong to that geographical area that has given so much to Enduro: Bergamo. He was also proud of “his” Scuderia Norelli through which he spent all his energy in favor of Motorcycling and Enduro. He has also given a lot to the FIM EUROPE Vintage Commission to which he has continued to offer his collaboration even as an outsider, despite already being struggling with his illness. I will never forget a friend and a great enthusiast like Massimo”.
