The Desert, the Dakar, and the Man who races everything: Romain Dumas
Dumas has raced Le Mans and won — three times. He has conquered Pikes Peak and rewritten the record books. He has driven electric demonstrator vehicles fast enough to feel, as he later said, “like flying.” He has torn across rally stages, through forests and farmland and snow. And now, at 47, he is returning to the world’s great deserts, first to Mexico’s Baja 1000 this November, then to the towering dunes and wide horizons of the Dakar Rally in 2026, both with Ford.
