life and career
As the son of motocross rider Kornel Nemeth Senior, Kornel first sat on a cross motorcycle at the age of three. He competed in his first races when he was eight.
In 1997 Kornel Nemeth started Freestyle Motocross (FMX). He took u. a. third place at the FMX World Cup 2001 in Riesa, Germany and catapulted himself into the ranks of the best FMX riders in the world. Exceptional talent and spectator favorite Kornel Nemeth (affectionately called "Cuby" by fans) was considered the best European FMX driver at the time. In addition to always spectacular shows, the FMX scene owes him a multitude of new or modified tricks, such as: B. the Supercuby (now called Holy Man ), the Kandybar to kan , the Kan kan no hand , the Nothing to kan and the Lazy boy to Superman seat grab.
In 2002 Kornel turned his back on the FMX and continued his career as a motocross racing driver. In 2000 "Cuby" secured third place in the European Motocross Championship. In 2005 Kornel fell unhappy at the Supercross in the Stuttgart Schleyerhalle and suffered serious injuries. After a series of operations and lengthy rehab, Kornel entered the current racing season in 2006 and fought for fifth place in the top category (MX1) of the ADAC MX Masters racing series and 19th place in the FIM MX1 World Championship . In 2007 Kornel became ADAC MX Masters runner-up (MX1) and finished the FIM MX1 World Championship in 12th place.
In 2008 "Cuby" secured third place in the ADAC MX Masters racing series (MX1) and finished the FIM MX1 World Championship in 15th position. In 2009, Kornel won the German Cross Country racing series and successfully took part in individual races of the Canadian International MX1 Championship (2nd . Place in Gopher Dunes). The title of International German Motocross Champion 2009 was subsequently revoked because of doping.
2010 Kornel devoted himself completely to the international Canadian MX1 championship and became Canadian runner-up. In 2011 he returned to Europe and drove for a Czech team for a year. In May 2012, Kornel Nemeth fell seriously while training and suffered back injuries that had to be operated on. He finished rehab too early and got back into the running racing season. Despite his break and serious injury, Kornel was able to win the last races of the German Cross Country racing series.
For 2013 he signed his first contract with the Hungarian team HTS KTM. He was able to achieve the following successes for the HTS KTM team: German Cross Country Champion 2013, Hungarian MX 1 Champion 2013, Endurocross WM 5th place overall in 2013 (rookie of the year); German Cross Country Champion 2014, Hungarian MX 1 Champion 2014, King of Xtreme Endurocross 2014 and X-Games 2015 Endurocross 11th place, German Cross Country Champion 2015, European XCC Champion 2015, King of Xtreme Endurocross 2015.
Kornel Nemeth was international Hungarian MX-1 champion a total of twenty-one times by 2015 and thus holds the record in this category.
In his spare time, Kornel practices as a boxer, drummer, BMX driver and skateboarder. He is a staunch vegetarian and sits down e.g. B. at Peta for animal rights and animal welfare. Kornel lives with his family in Germany and Hungary.
