The MXGP of Turkey was a special event for Yamaha, as its young powerhouse Lotte van Drunen clinched the 2024 FIM Women’s Motocross World Championship crown, officially earning her title as the fastest girl on the planet!
At just 17 years old and only in her second season as a pro, Lotte made history as the youngest-ever WMX World Champion. “This is a dream come true!" the teary teenager said, "I didn’t know I was the youngest-ever World Champion until after the podium, which made it even more special—wow! I’m still so young, so it’s unbelievable. I don’t think there are very many 17-year-olds who can say they are a World Champion, so this is something I will never forget."
