ANTONIO CAIROLI
Antonio (Tony) Cairoli was born September 23, 1985 in Patti, Italy and in 2013 goes into the season aiming for his seventh World Championship title. Already a recognized champion, Tony joined the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing Team at the beginning of the 2010 season, bringing with him his long-time manager Claudio De Carli. He began his MX GP career in 2002 and won the MX2 title in 2005 and 2007. Cairoli set the bar a little higher taking the MX1 title in 2009 and reclaimed it in 2010, 2011 and again in 2012. He had a golden season in 2012 taking eleven victories, was second on one occasion and as twice third. Tony was introduced to racing by his father at an early age and naturally has won a whole string of national titles.
Tony again rides the KTM 350 SX-F against the bigger 450 cc competition bikes in the current MX1 season. He is one of the most popular riders in MX1 competition and a great role model for younger team members.
