Edición de la BAJA 1000 2013, en Ensenada B.C una de las carreras más famosas en nuestro país y en donde desafortunadamente como resultado de una accidente perdió la vida el amigo, gran piloto y enorme persona, KURT CASELLI. Cuando le faltaban 100 millas por cerrar su línea, los reportes hablan de una fuerte caída en un booby-trap, que es una trampa que realizan los espectadores, si tal cual lo leen. Fue trasladado al hospital pero los severos golpes le causaron la muerte. El deporte motor en el mundo está de luto, pedimos a Dios por su eterno descanso y pronta resignación a la familia. Descanse en Paz Kurt.
Varios medios, pilotos que estuvieron presentes y la propia marca en la cual corría KURT anuncian que el accidente no fue provocado por persona ó trampa alguna.

KTM reports with great sadness that American KTM factory rider Kurt Caselli died as the result of injuries sustained in a crash while competing in the SCORE/Baja 1000 this weekend.
Kurt Caselli, part of the Factory FMF/Bonanza Plumbing/KTM team competing in this desert race, was in a leading position when he suffered a crash that resulted in severe multiple injuries and his subsequent death at the site of the accident. He died of his injuries in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico.
The team, who have now recovered Caselli’s bike discovered traces on the machine that indicate he had collided with some animal, which apparently caused the crash.
Kurt Caselli, 30, was an accomplished American offroad and desert rider but he had also made a successful transition to international rallies for the KTM Factory Team. He was admired and respected in racing circles for his skill, natural talent and exemplary sportsmanship far beyond the borders of his home country. While Caselli was one of the most popular figures on the KTM team, he was also an unmatched role model for young riders and fans.
Passionate about his sport, he had multiple consecutive championships in WORCS and National Hare and Hound racing and had been the lead rider for the USA International Six Days Enduro team for the past ten years. In January 2013, Caselli was drafted into the official KTM rally team to ride in the Dakar Rally, replacing his friend and factory teammate Marc Coma, who was injured. Caselli’s debut ride in the 2013 Dakar Rally was impressive. He was subsequently given a permanent spot on the KTM rally team and was preparing to contest the Dakar 2014 and the FIM World Cross Country Rallies Championship in the coming season.
Pit Beirer, Head of KTM Motorsports: “Today we lost a KTM hero in the worst possible circumstances. We are shocked and saddened by this tragic news and our thoughts and deepest condolences go out to Kurt’s family. Kurt was much more than a very talented rider; he was also an exceptional team player. He represented and lived by the values and a passion for racing that lies at the very core of KTM. Our sport has lost more than a great rider; we have also lost an excellent ambassador for offroad racing.”
Jon-Erik Burleson, President of KTM North America: ”We at KTM can’t put into context the loss everyone in the motorcycling community is experiencing. Beyond his racing successes and talent as a rider, Kurt was above all else a core member of our greater off-road family that simply can’t be replaced. Kurt inspired the KTM family to keep pushing the limits of racing. He was the driving force behind our renewed efforts in Baja, Hare & Hound and the International Six Days Enduro. His work ethic, attitude and graciousness will never be matched.”
Antti Kallonen, Factory FMF/KTM Team Manager: “The loss of Kurt is immense to the sport, our team and to our family. Kurt has been on KTM his entire professional career. Even in the early years he brought something special to the off-road environment by bringing a leadership role like no other. He had the uncanny ability to bring a team together for efforts big and small. Professional motorcycle racing is always considered an individual sport, but Kurt made it a team sport. Whenever there was an opportunity to lead, help, inspire, advise or coach Kurt went into it like he went into a race – completely prepared, completely confident and knowing he could win. Kurt was the most galvanizing force I’ve ever seen. Those who knew him were lucky. Those of us who got to work with him were blessed.”
Kurt Caselli will be deeply missed by the entire KTM family, his teammates, his fellow competitors and by his fans all over the world. At this time of acute sadness, the KTM management and the entire KTM international family extend their heartfelt condolences to the Caselli family.
