"Cela nous a fait du bien de voir autant d’amis en bord de piste, le championnat national nous manque. Le but était de prendre le maximum de points. C’est bien de l’avoir fait juste avant le Maroc. On doit penser avant tout au championnat, on a fait un long voyage autour du monde pour ça, ce n’est pas le moment d’aller se prendre au jeu de la victoire de manche au risque de perdre ce que l’on a construit. "

• 25 years old Alexandre Pinto started racing the Portuguese off-road championship back in 2021 without any family member being involved in motorsport.
• But that doesn’t seem to have hindered his progress and since then he has finished 4 times on the championship’s podium.
• In 2024 Alexandre broadened his horizons by entering the European Baja Cup. It turned out to be a good move as he finished 2nd in his category.
• In preparation for the 2025 Dakar he also entered the Rallye du Maroc where he finished Best Rookie and second T4 as well as winning the Road to Dakar category.
• Racing is taking more and more place in Alexandre’s life but when he’s not competing or training he likes to travel and hang out with his family and friends.
