About Xavier Simeon

Xavier Siméon (born 31 August 1989) is a Grand Prix motorcycle racer from Belgium currently rider for the LCR E-Team in Moto E.

After claiming the 2009 FIM Superstock 1000 Cup, Xavier Simeon spent the 2010 season as a substitute Moto2™ rider for the HolidayGym team. Those stand-in rides saw the Belgian make some impressive outings and secured him a contract in Moto2™ with the Tech 3 team in 2011. 2013 saw him snapped up by the SAG Team on board a Kalex, before he moved to Federal Oil Gresini Moto2™ to ride the Suter in 2014. In 2015 Simeon continued with the Gresini team again, securing second in the opening race in Qatar. The highlight of the year came when Simeon took victory in the German GP, his first GP win. Switching to QMMF Racing Team for 2016, Simeon then rode for Tasca Racing Scuderia Moto2 the following season – and now debuts in the premier class for Reale Avintia Racing in 2018.
