ETIEN KANTAR BOŽIČ - TENTEN
I was born on December 1, 2007 in Izola. I live in Lucija and am currently attending
Lucija Primary School. I have an older sister Eneja who also gave me my nickname "TenTen".
Grateful fot the support of my family, which is getting stronger day by day,
I first got on a motorcycle when I was 4 years old.
Gasoline vapors addicted me then and addiction is still present today.
When I was 6 I started competing in the mini-moto races.

Year 2013: As the youngest competitor I competed at the minimoto races for the first time
and in my inaugural season I reached the 3rd place overall !

Slovenian championship, I was also participating in the UISP Veneto
regional championship in Italy.

In addition to the Italian UISP Triveneto Championship and the Trofeo ItaIia Championship,
for the first time at only seven years old, I was a participant in the
European Championships in the Netherlands and in Italy, where I ranked 13th place.
-
Year 2016: I became a national champion for the first time.
I dedicated myself even more to racing in Italy and so I was competing
in the Italian national championship for the first time for the Top - Racing team.
I was ranked 24th among 43 racers. I was 3rd overall in the Italian regional competition
and 14th overall in the Marco Simoncelli Championship (also in Italy).

where I participated in half of the announced races, which was enough for an overall 18th place!
