Adrien Van Beveren – the heart of 442

Adrien Van Beveren is one of the most accomplished athletes in rally-raid motorsport. The northern Frenchman made a name for himself in the demanding sand races of Le Touquet with three consecutive victories and brought his blend of discipline, precision, and endurance to the biggest stages, such as the Dakar Rally. Recognizable by his iconic starting number 442 , Adrien embodies not only top performance but also an attitude: quiet determination, an unwavering work ethic, and the unwavering belief in pushing boundaries, step by step.
