Legend Minute:  A Memorable Rally Story

2025, final stage: Jacopo Cerutti and Alessandro Botturi, two Italian rally-raid titans, battle for the final victory. Only 9 seconds separate them at the start of the last stage. The tension was palpable.

In the sand, the two men fought meter by meter on the grueling course. Cerutti crosses the finish line first... and starts counting the seconds. He knows everything could change in an instant.

Behind him, Botturi arrives... tangled in a net he dragged to the finish after a slight navigation error.

Verdict: Cerutti wins by just 26 seconds. A tiny gap after more than 6,000 kilometers of racing. One of the most thrilling duels in recent Africa Eco Race history!
