With the year coming to an end and ready to greet the new one, GASGAS Factory Racing has just announced that Albert Cabestany will be the new team manager for 2021.
Albert Cabestany to be new team manager in 2021
The defending Trial-E World Champion will be stepping away from full-time competition to take charge of the factory trial team and guide them through both the X-Trial and TrialGP World Championship.
With more than 20 years of international trial experience, Cabestany is the man for the job. Not only is he hugely capable on a bike, but he is also incredibly knowledgeable about one. He is a consistent challenger for world championship honours with no fever than 85 outdoor and 90 indoor podium results to his credit, including 27 victories.
Focused on developing the team’s testing, training and competition program, the Spaniard will provide invaluable knowledge, experience and guidance, ensuring the team is perfectly prepared to take on the 2021 FIM X-Trial and TrialGP series.

“After so many years competing in trial, this is the perfect next step for me. To be the GASGAS Factory Racing Trial Team Manager is such a unique and exciting opportunity, I’m really looking forward to working with our riders and doing all I can to continue the team’s success. For sure I’m going to give it my all and enjoy the experience. It’s an important team within the trial paddock, with high expectations, so I’m really excited about the future.”
Robert Jonas, VP Motorsports Offroad
“Trial remains hugely important to GASGAS, both from a production bike point of view and also from a motorsport perspective. This is why we are pleased to have appointed Albert Cabestany as our new trial team manager. Albert is hugely experienced when it comes to all things trial. While he is best known as a successful competitor, he also has considerable testing and development experience. We believe he will inject the right mix of energy and focus into the team and push it forward in 2021, allowing our riders to perform at their very best.”
