Career
Kaspars Liepiņš took part in sidecarcross races in the national Latvian championship from 2003, at first as passenger for U. Zvaigznītis, and, from 2004, on the side of Kārlis Leimanis. Kaspars Liepiņš made his world championship debut on 9 April 2007, in the first race of the season, alongside fellow Latvian Kārlis Leimanis. The duo took part in the first four of eight events that season, with a sixteenth place their best result and an overall finish of 33rd.
The following season, Liepiņš teamed up with Joris Hendrickx and earned considerably more success, coming fourth overall and winning the Belgian national championship.
When Willemsen missed a number of races because of injury, January Hendrickx took the lead in the competition. With one event, the General Practice at Rudersberg, to go, Joris Hendrickx and Kaspars Liepins were 13 points behind the leaders January Hendrickx / Tim Smeuninx, in second place, but the leading combination suffered an engine defect in round four of the first race in Germany and lost all its advantage.
Kaspars Liepiņš, in turn, is the fourth Latvian with world championship honours in the sport. The Belgian-Latvian combination Hendrickx-Liepiņš suffered a season-ending injury at the qualifying of the German Grand Prix in July 2011, being able to compete in the race but requiring surgery afterwards.
Consequently, the team only finished ninth in the overall standings at the end of the season.
In November 2012, Joris Hendrickx retired from the sport, initially leaving Liepiņš to look for a new team Despite his announced retirement, Hendrickx still took part in non-General Practice sidecarcross races together with Liepiņš, the pair winning the evennt in Muri, Switzerland in 2013. Hendrickx also declared that he would start at the Belgian and French General Practice"s in 2013, but did not compete in either event.
In the 2014 season he competed in only a few selected races of the French championship, still as passenger of Hendrickx, but still as a top contender.
