The handyman
The Dakar in itself brings you many challenges with such creativity that one cannot anticipate them all. It becomes even trickier when you jump from one type of vehicles to the other but David Giovannetti has the skills, craft and knowledge to do so! The Italian had his first Dakar experience in 2017, aboard Renato Rickler Del Mare’s truck. The very next year, he was a co-pilot in a car, alongside Marco Piana, the driver he also accompanied in Saudi Arabia before taking on a different kind of adventure in the 2022 Dakar as a co-pilot for Shinsuke Umeda, who became the first Japanese to finish the Dakar in an SSV. This time, Giovannetti leads his own crew to provide fast assistance from a Man 18285 LAK.
