Rebecca Busi, Rally Raid World Championship driver

I grew up in motorsport, falling in love with engines as a child, following my father to the races, and being raised among cars, bikes, and the myth of the Dakar.

Who am I

I am a professional Word Rally‑Raid championship driver and driver instructor for Lamborghini Squadra Corse.

I grew up in motorsport, following my father to the races and absorbing the world of cars, bikes, and the Dakar myth from an early age.

I went from go‑karts to historic rallies, unsure if I’d ever reach the level I dreamed of. In 2021, I made the choice that changed everything: I committed to the Dakar Classic. In 2022, I raced it and became the youngest Italian woman to finish the race.

In 2023, I entered the SSV world and earned a podium at the Sonora Rally in Mexico, laying the foundation for the seasons ahead.

In 2024, I raced with OnlyFans Racing, climbed onto podiums across Mexico and Argentina and closed the year with a 3rd place in the World Rally‑Raid Championship SSV. I was also honoured to be named in the annual Forbes Under 30 list.

Now, in 2026, I join X‑Raid to take the next step, driving the factory prototype. This season is about raising the pace, embracing the fight, and proving what’s possible when you refuse to slow down.
