KTM insolvent , WESS under Liquidation !!! Riders are not payed … Here is the letter send to riders from WESS Promotion GmbH.
“As you can imagine, KTM’s recent decision to withdraw its support for the Hard Enduro World Championship has had a significant impact on our organization and the championship as a whole.
Due to the resulting circumstances, WESS Promotion GmbH is now forced to undergo liquidation. However, we want to assure you that this does not mark the end of the Hard Enduro World Championship. The current team, under the leadership of Winfried Kerschhaggl and Ricardo Mitterer, is fully committed to ensuring the continuation of the series and is actively working to organize the promotion of the championship for the next season under a different framework.
Over the past weeks, we have held constructive discussions with event organizers and the FIM regarding this matter. These conversations have been extremely positive, and from today’s perspective, the 2025 season should be able to take place as planned. If changes are necessary, they will primarily affect the overseas races.
We will provide further details and potential changes to the calendar in January. Until then, we are working with full energy and dedication to secure the realization of the 2025 season and the continuation of the Hard Enduro World Championship.
Thank you for your understanding and support during this challenging period.
Best regards,
The Team of the Hard Enduro World Championship”
