Il Mondiale di Enduro 2012 non poteva che terminare in Francia. Questa stagione verrà infatti ricordata per il dominio assoluto dei piloti transalpini che hanno conquistato tutte e tre le classi regine del mondiale. Dopo i titoli, già assegnati, in E1 ed E3 (andati a Meo e Nambotin), anche l'E2 è finita nelle mani di un francese: Pela Renet (Husaberg). Degli italiani ci sono piaciuti Thomas Oldrati, in netto recupero dopo le vicissitudini extra-sportive col Team Bordone-Ferrari, e Giacomo Redondi che ha dominato la Youth Cup.
