Stockholm, August 20th, 2026: Raven celebrates another major achievement with Larissa Papenmeier, who has secured the 2026 German Women’s Motocross Championship after winning both races at the seventh round of the German Motocross Championship.
Racing for SYE Racing Team 423, Papenmeier delivered a commanding performance at the Bielsteiner Waldkurs on August 2nd. Two race wins gave her the maximum points available and confirmed the DMX Damen title with one championship round still to run.
Two gates dropped. Two chequered flags. One championship secured.
The result crowns a highly consistent national campaign for one of Germany’s most successful motocross riders. Papenmeier entered the Bielstein round with a strong championship lead and finished the day with the title beyond the reach of her rivals.
“Winning the German Championship for the 13th time is an amazing feeling. I’m really happy with how the season has gone and proud of the work that has gone into getting here. To secure the title with two race wins in Bielstein makes it even more special. A big thank you to my team, everyone who supports me and Raven for being part of my journey. Now we can celebrate this one and then keep pushing forward,” said Papenmeier.
Behind every race result are countless hours of training, preparation and testing. At this level, every part of a rider’s equipment needs to perform consistently.
Raven has supported Papenmeier with high quality motocross gear since 2025. Throughout her championship campaign, Papenmeier has competed in the Raven RV-Zero MX clothing kit, developed for riders who need freedom of movement, ventilation and durability under demanding race conditions.
The lightweight jersey uses breathable technical fabric and strategically placed ventilation to help manage heat during intense riding. Flexible trousers allow unrestricted movement on the bike, while the close fitting gloves provide the grip and responsiveness required for precise control.
The complete setup is designed to move naturally with the rider. Less distraction. More focus. Lap after lap.
Papenmeier’s success demonstrates what Raven stands for: rider tested equipment, functional design and performance that remains accessible to the wider motocross community.
Raven’s support of Papenmeier extends beyond race weekends. Rider feedback is an important part of how Raven develops and refines its products, helping ensure the gear is shaped by the demands of real riding. Papenmeier’s experience at the highest levels of women’s motocross brings valuable insight into that process.
That experience provides a demanding real world benchmark for Raven gear. Every start, jump, rut and race distance puts the equipment under pressure. The result is valuable proof of how the products perform when comfort, movement and concentration matter most.
For Raven, supporting established champions such as Papenmeier also sends a wider message to the next generation of riders. Professional quality equipment should help ambitious riders move forward, whether they are fighting for a national championship or preparing for their first race.
Papenmeier’s title is the result of her speed, experience and relentless preparation. Raven is proud to provide gear that helps her stay focused on the job.
