Adrien Petit retires from French championship

Edited Date/Time 3/31/2025 9:20am

As he was leading the last race of the french championship in Pernes Les Fontaines this week-end in front of Mathys Boisrame and Thibault Benistant, Adrien crashed with Mathys a few meters away from the finish line.

 

As he is leading the EMX250 championship, he decided to retire from French elite championship to focus on the EMX250, as the national title is considered too dangerous now.

Any context to this?
"After several years of participation, I would have liked to go to the end of this season, but the current environment no longer corresponds to the values of the sport I love. Beyond the competition, what matters to me is respect, fair play and safety on the court. Unfortunately, some recent behaviours have me thinking I don’t belong in this championship."

So Boisrame took him out and Petit is pissed there were no repercussions? Trying to pull a Carmichael 06

They way I inferred it was the same, he thinks it is BS that he got cross jumped the way he did, and doesn't want to risk injury and is disappointed nothing was done about it. 

 

Every time I watch a euro race I thank whatever god is out there that I get to ride on North American tracks. Man that track did not look fun.

Some people on the Boisramé side had pretty bad words for Adrien just when he was laying there in pain. That did not go well for with Petit's family, who are great and very respectfull people. Nothing to do with the crash, just bad behavior from one particular guy, who has a tendency to run his mouth a bit much and already has a "not so good" reputation in the paddock.

Never a good idea to infer (on a public forum), when you don't know anything about facts.

I can't stand BS post like this ! Tell the guy it's not the case but then stays secretive about what happened for some BS reasons ! Just explain what happened and why and with who ! my gosh, i can't stand behavior like yours, it is so childish

Anyway, thanks to Rad76 alias Richard from mx2k for giving us some very insightful backgrounds

Typical Yann, polishing his mysterious insider aura.

Some things never change -they just get funnier with age...
