BIO
Adrien Van Beveren is a three times winner of “Le Tourquet”, arguably the worlds toughest beach race. Taking the global rally scene by surprise with his sixth place result at his first Dakar Rally in 2016, Van Beveren battled for Dakar victory in 2018 when he won one stage and managed to retain the provisional overall lead for four stages until a crash during stage 10 ended his title hopes. 2019 would be another disappointing Dakar after being ruled out with a technical issue while maintaining second on the standings. Vanbeveren moved on to win the Merzouga Rally in Morocco.
