Born 1994. Amelia Racea is a Romanian artistic gymnast.
2010 Racea's senior debut at a major international competition was at the 2010 European Championships. Here she qualified for the vault and floor finals and contributed to the team bronze medal. In the beam final, she replaced the top qualifier Ana Porgras, who withdrew due to an ankle injury. She won the gold medal on beam and placed fifth on floor and seventh on vault. Due to injuries, Racea was a reserve of the team for the 2010 World Championships, and she did not compete at this event.
2011 Her first 2011 competition was the European Championships in Berlin. Here she had a weak performance on qualification day with mistakes on floor, beam and uneven bars. Consequently, she failed to qualify on beam and barely qualified in the all-around final (22nd place). However, in the all around final Racea managed to have clean routines and edged teammate Diana Chelaru for the bronze medal. She also placed seventh in the vault final. A week later she participated at the 2011 Glasgow World Cup, where she won the all around title ahead of Jessica López and teammate Raluca Haidu. In August–September 2011, she had good performances at the Romanian National Championships (second all around) and at two friendly meets in Germany and Great Britain. After these competitions, she went with the Romanian team to compete at the 2011 World Championships. Here, she helped her team place fourth by competing on uneven bars and on beam in the team final. Individually, she placed fifth in the beam final.
Post-gymnastics career Following her gymnastics career, she joined Circul Metropolitan Bucuresti, and has said that training for the circus is easier than her gymnastics training.
