Day in day out working in a high risk environment, and a freak ski accident is what calls him home……

Enjoy every day, because no one knows just how many their going to get.

RIP Rene, prayers to you and your loved ones.

Rene was 19 years old. Rest in peace and I hope his friends and family are doing okay right now. This is so sad.

Dreadful- so young and getting so good on that KTM- aah its just too sad.

As said- who knows what can happen each day to day or minute to minute even .... 'live every moment like its your last', to coin a phrase but not sure that's so easy; as otherwise we would be possibly expecting a possible disaster all the time .... and in everything we do!

Such sad news and an outstanding young rider for sure. RIP

Such a terrible tragedy. Condolences to his family, friends and team and also his two friends who were also taken, all far too young.

RIP.

Man that is unbelievable. It was a pleasure to watch him progress this season and get his first win. He seemed to always be smiling and was really into his family. Horrible horrible news. He still has a story posted on his IG…. Looks like his sister was there skiing too. Omg :/

Ride in Peace, Rene. He was a year younger than my oldest son. I can't imagine what his parents are going through.

Oh my god this is fucking terrible! Following all the GP stuff religiously over quite a few years , I watched him come up from mini's. Such an awesome talent that was just coming into his own in MX2. My thoughts and prayers go out to all his family and friends. So gutted right now I don't even know what else to say. Rest in peace young man.

This same thought runs through my head all the time Jem. I don't think I'll ever know the answer.
