Fano Trained by World-Class Coach in Belgium

TRIBUNJOGJA.COM - The strong desire of young cross-rider from Yogyakarta, Cameron Stefano Gallardo, to break through achievements in world racing has garnered much support.

Having strong interest to the world of racing since the age of 6, Fano has now joined the DVS KTM Team in Belgium.

The path to the world of motocross racing has been open for Fano since a young age. At 6th, the opportunity emerged when his mother, Rosy Liana, took him to a motor exhibition at the Jogja Expo Center (JEC). Among the motorcycles present at the exhibition, one bike captivated Fano. With great enthusiasm, Fano hesitated not to plead for that bike to become his own.

This marked the extraordinary start of Fano's journey into the world of motocross. From this point, Fano began practicing on the field before eventually navigating professional circuits.

Currently at the age of 12, Fano is competing in the 85cc class, indicating his progress and commitment to motocross racing.

Throughout his challenging journey, Fano has achieved impressive accolades. Among them is his runner-up position in the 2019 National Motocross Championship (Kejurnas).

Fano also showcased exceptional potential by clinching the championship title in the SE65cc class at the Dedengkot Grasstrack & Motocross event at the Agro Wisata circuit in Tangjung Sari, Wonosobo.

His successes also include a second-place finish in the SE65 Novice class at the 2020 Jabar Open MX & GTX event held at the Cambora circuit in Sumedang.

But Fano's journey doesn't stop there. Presently, he is stepping into a new phase of his career by joining the DVS KTM Junior Racing Team in Belgium.

This decision demonstrates his strong determination to break through existing boundaries. Fano believes that training and preparation in Belgium will aid him in achieving his dream of competing on the international racing stage.

However, Fano's ambitions don't end there. His grander vision is to bring glory to Indonesia on the prestigious stage of the Motocross Junior World Championship scheduled for 2024.

The DVS KTM Junior Racing Team is renowned as one of the world's best teams in the junior category. Supported by KTM Factory, this team has achieved numerous junior motocross world championship titles, making it the most productive team to date.

Dirk Vansummeren is the owner of DVS KTM Junior Racing and is also recognized as an experienced mechanic in assembling motocross race engines since 1992.

With this team, as quoted from vmxmedia, Vansummeren has produced several remarkable junior motocross world champions, including Mike Alessi, Valerio Lata, and Liam Evert.

DVS Junior Racing is a part of KTM AG (Kronreif & Trunkenpolz Mattighofen), a company previously known as KTM Sportmotorcycle AG.
