 At 27 years old, Rebecca Busi is ready to become a key figure of the Dakar. Her first venture in the Dakar Classic, in 2022, was an uncertain bet, at the last minute, but it turned out to be a successful one, with a first finish. Last year, she took another step aboard a SSV alongside Giulia Maroni, but the Italian duo had to abandon the race on day 12. “We have a score to settle and another story to write”, Busi said as she bid farewell to the event that fills her dreams. She returns for Dakar 2024 with a co-pilot she admires as “a real Dakarian” - Sergio Lafuente, who first shined on his quad in South America and most recently accompanied Dania Akeel’s rise in the Saudi desert. The young Italian, who takes her followers behind the wheel on OnlyFans, and the Uruguayan veteran aim for the higher positions in the SSV standings.
