معلومات عن الطاقم

• Pablo was born in Cordoba but went to Rio Gallegos, in Patagonia, when he was just one year old. He grew up surrounded by nature and outdoor sports, even when the weather didn’t always cooperate: during 350 days a year wind blows quite fast. As a kid, he practised soccer (forward) in the Tractores Viales local team, tennis, padel (from 17 years old) and volleyball. It wasn’t until the age of 30 that he got on a quad for the first time, and that’s when he discovered his true passion for off-road racing.
• "La mano de Dios" hits Pablo's face when he was 10. The little boy has always had Diego Armando Maradona as absolute idol through his young years. For him, Maradona started very low and went so high, it's an example for all. Beating England in 1986, the way he did it and during the Malvinas War was something unforgettable for the little boy. It couldn't be different for Pablo who went to see a Boca Juniors-River Plate game at la Bombonera stadium in Buenos Aires at the age of 5!
• Martin Palermo, Manu Ginobili, André Agassi, Rafael Nadal, Gabriela Sabatini, Valentino Rossi and Juan Maria Traverso are among Pablo's idols too.
• After eleven Dakar appearances, seven stage wins and three third places overall in the Quad category, Pablo decided to take on a new challenge with MMP Motorsports. In 2024, he trained and raced in the T4 class, but he felt that the car didn’t have the potential to be truly competitive. Earlier this year, Guillaume Micouleau -the owner of MMP Motorsports- told him about the new project they were developing for the T3 class. Pablo got immediately excited about it.
• Since his last Dakar in 2023, Pablo has dedicated himself to another sport he's passionate about: pickleball, the fastest-growing sport in the United States. He competed in the Pro Qualyfier in the PPA Tour and in the PPA Challenger. He has rediscovered the same competitive fire he felt as a kid playing padel and tennis. After stepping away from quads, pickleball became a new way to challenge himself every day. Competing at a high level in two sports at the same time is something that truly excites him and keeps him constantly evolving.
• Throughout this year, he trained intensively in the United States, where he lives, specially in the dunes and deserts of Nevada and California. He also tested the car in France and Morocco to arrive as prepared as possible: "I’m excited to compete in the Dakar again. I know we’re not among the favorites but I also know how long and demanding this race is. Anything can happen. The goal is to finish every day and arrive to the second week in a good position to define our strategy."
• Pablo's family means everything to him. He is married to Carolina and has two daughters, Gina and Isabella, both playing volleyball. They love to spend their vacations in San Martin de Los Andes.

• Is Ennio a real brazilian ? Well, as he does not like football, the question has to be asked. More seriously, Enio is driven by adrenaline and he does prefer mental sports, starting at a very young age. Determined by nature and passionate about winning, he carried quite early the spirit of a competitor: at eight years old, he was already a regular chess player in tournaments throughout Brazil, taking his first steps in mind sports that demand strategy, precision and emotional control.
• At the age of 20, he discovered poker while he was at the university. He found it very similar to chess and fell in love with it. He studied, trained, dedicated himself and soon the major tournaments and titles followed. He traveled the world competing in some of the most prestigious events in the sport.
• In 2016, he found yet another passion : beach tennis. Three years later, he became World Amateur Champion in Aruba. But for someone addicted to extreme challenges, adrenaline keeps calling louder. Scuba diving, climbing, skydiving, skiing… Bozzano has always sought sports that test the limits. And then he discovered rally, the perfect combination of everything that drives him.
• In 2020, invited by his friend Fabio Pirondi, he joined his first rally race. He started as a driver and, in that very first year, finished as runner-up in the UTV3 category of the Rally dos Sertoes. He competed in nearly every race in Brazil and soon decided to face the ultimate challenge, the Dakar Rally.
• Three years later, he made his Dakar debut as a driver, taking on the imposing dunes of Saudi Arabia alongside his friend Luciano Gomes, who now makes his debut in the motorcycle category. After three years of driving, Bozzano switched to navigation and discovered yet another passion.
• In 2024, he returned to the Dakar, this time navigating for Rodrigo Varela, one of the fastest Brazilian drivers. The duo made a remarkable start, winning both the Prologue and the first Special Stage. After four strong days at the front, they suffered a mechanical failure and spent the night stranded in the vast emptiness of the Empty Quarter. Despite the setback, the experience was revealing: "That moment proved to me that winning the Dakar is absolutely possible."
• Today, Bozzano compares navigation to poker, a game where you can't afford a single mistake: "For me, rally is the sport that brings the highest peak of adrenaline for the longest time. In poker, the feeling is like going all-in on the river, bluffing every hand. In rally, that feeling lasts all day long."
• Last october, he achieved his first international victory at the Baja Morocco, alongside Mickaël Metge. It was a race full of learning, intensity and top-level performance.
• For this 2026 Dakar, Bozzano arrives even more motivated, prepared and determined. This year marks a new chapter, as he received a special invitation to race alongside Pablo Copetti, winner of seven stages, with three podium finishes, and a remarkable history of leading one of the toughest competitions on the planet.
• Ennio's wife, Pamela, was the first brazilian woman to ever drive in the Dakar Rally during the 2023 edition (32nd position in T3, 102nd overall, with brazilian copilot Carlos Sachs)
