How many times have we put our lives, our careers, back on track. Alessandro Botturi certainly several times in Sport, in which he has been a protagonist for thirty years. He started with athletics, was discovered in Rugby, became an idol with Enduro. Are fifteen or so Six Days enough to make the point?

He moved on to Rally-Raid and became the best Rookie in 2012, the year of his debut with a team that... never mind. Botturi didn't give up and the first official call came immediately. He raced and helped develop Moto da Corsa, and remained as... always. Kind and affectionate, sincere, direct and communicative. Let's say exemplary, which is quicker. His fan base is constantly growing.

Finally the new Adventure. The day Yamaha declares that it will no longer do the Dakar, it turns out that the Giant of Lumezzane is working on a new bike for new purposes. The bike is the Ténéré 700 World Rally Raid, with which it makes its debut at the Africa Eco Race. The goal is to finish, to test the version that will go into dealerships for a new type (or perhaps the original) of sporty customer with adventure inside. Botturi misses nothing, not even the surprising victory in the third stage of the gruelling African marathon on the Lake Rose route, Dakar. An extremely tough test, in which he discovered himself to be more the Man than the well-known Rider.
