Andrea Adamo (born August 22, 2003) is an Italian professional motocross racer who has competed in the Motocross World Championship since 2019. [1] He is the 2023 MX2 Motocross World Champion.
Adamo began the 2023 MX2 championship by placing 2nd at the opening round. His first Grand Prix victory would arise at round 4 in Trentino, Italy. [2] Adamo clinched the 2023 MX2 World Championship at round eighteen in Maggiora, Italy.
2024 saw Adamo fail in defending his MX2 Championship, he struggled with bike setup all season and only scored a handful of podium finishes. This resulted in a 6th place in the Championship.
Adamo began the season with strong form, picking up his first GP win of 2025 at the MXGP of Europe. [3] He followed that with additional overall wins at Trentino and Portugal. [4] [5] Later in the season he also claimed a win at Germany. [6]
In addition to his GP victories, Adamo had consistent finishes across other rounds. He often placed in the top 5 when not winning, contributing solid points toward his championship tally. He also won a dramatic MX2 qualifying race mid-season in Arnhem, defeating rivals including Sacha Coenen and Liam Everts. [7]
His campaign was not without difficulty: in some GPs he encountered tough competition or finishes outside the podium, especially in rounds dominated by rival Kay de Wolf or Simon Längenfelder. [8]
Adamo finished the season in third place in the MX2 standings with 845 points. [9] He trailed champion Simon Längenfelder and runner-up Kay de Wolf in the final classification. [9] His result marked an improvement over previous seasons and confirmed his status as one of the leading figures in MX2. [10]
