A motorcycle rider died while training for his farewell race

One of the witnesses to the accident explained to El Liberal: “He made a jump and continued. Right in that part of the circuit there was a curve where he had to turn, but he continued on with the motorcycle. He didn’t brake, he didn’t let go, nothing. The motorcycle took him. Before reaching the fence he fell to the ground “.

After the crash, the other runners came to help him. They put him in a van and took him to the emergency room. During the journey they performed CPR on him, but when he arrived at the health center he was lifeless.

On June 29, he would participate in the second date of the Argentine Northwest Argentine motocross championship. Prior to this, he had told his friends that he was going to retire from competitions due to the danger of the sport.
