BARCIA AND GASGAS SPLIT AFTER FIVE YEARS

3 weeks ago | Photos: GASGAS

Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing has announced that the team will part ways with Justin Barcia after five historic years together in the AMA Supercross and Pro Motocross Championships, which included the brand’s first 450SX Main Event and 450MX overall victories.

Barcia initially joined the team equipped with the GASGAS MC450F for the 2021 AMA Supercross season, and incredibly won their first 450SX Main Event together on debut in Houston. That maiden, history-making victory marked the inaugural time that GASGAS had won a Supercross Main Event. Barcia went on to earn three more indoor podium finishes that year, as well as fourth overall in the final 450SX standings, before delivering GASGAS its first victory in Pro Motocross at the Spring Creek National that same season via a 1-2 moto scorecard.

Over the course of the four seasons that followed, Barcia claimed a haul of podium results both in Supercross and Pro Motocross, with another 450SX Main Event victory achieved at East Rutherford in 2023 onboard the GASGAS MC450F Factory Edition model. Barcia took fifth overall in both the 2022 and 2023 AMA Supercross Championships, further solidifying his legacy in helping to put GASGAS on the map in North American competition. In 2025, with Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing, BAMBAM placed 10th across the entire SuperMotocross World Championship (SMX) season.

Recognised for his charisma and dedicated style on the race track, the Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing Team thanks the 33-year-old out of Monroe, New York,  for his unwavering approach to racing, and wishes him all the best in the future.
