With the signing of a Spanish trials star hungry for world championship success , the 2023 season is looking good for the GasGas Factory Racing trial team ! As part of the ongoing strengthening of the team , GasGas signed the highly skilled and flamboyant Spaniard Jaime Busto to the factory team . The 24-year-old has already enjoyed a highly successful career , having claimed both the Youth and Junior titles in his national Spanish championship , and an FIM Junior World Championship in 2014 . Over the past six seasons in the TrialGP World Championship , Busto has finished inside the top three no less than four times , as well as claiming four overall top-three championship results in the intense X-Trial indoor series .

Completing the 2022 TrialGP season as runnerup , the wild Spaniard is looking to go one better in 2023 and sees GASGAS as the team to make it happen ! Jaime started his contract with the team on December 1 , 2022 . “ I ’ m so excited to join GASGAS for next season ,” explains Busto . “ It ’ s a brand with Spanish heritage and that ’ s really important , but also the whole structure and dynamic of the team looks really strong . The bike itself is great and I know the plan is to keep on developing and improving all the time . For 2023 , my goal is to improve on my results from this year . I want to be more consistent and in the fight for the win at every single race . The whole GASGAS vibe fits my style really well , and I ’ m hoping that by working hard together we can achieve some greats results this year .”
