ABOUT EDGAR
Edgar Canet, born in La Garriga, Barcelona, is one of the fastest-rising threats in World Rally-Raid. He burst onto the scene with a fierce runner-up finish at the 1,000 Dunes, then backed it up by winning the Oasis Rally—early proof that he was built for the desert.
Hungry for bigger battles, Edgar stepped onto the world stage in 2024 with his debut W2RC season. He immediately showed he belonged, grabbing 3rd in the prologue at the Portugal Rally-Raid and locking down 11th overall, including 3rd in Rally2. He matched the result at the Desafío Ruta 40 before unleashing a breakout ride at Rallye du Maroc—finishing 7th overall and 2nd in Rally2 against some of the toughest competition on the planet.
Then came a dominant 2025 season. Edgar went on a tear in Rally2, winning four out of five events—including the legendary Dakar Rally—on his way to being crowned the 2025 Rally2 World Cup Champion.
Now, in 2026, Edgar is stepping up to the big leagues. With his KTM 450 RALLY beneath him, he’s ready to take on the ultimate test: his debut in the RallyGP class at the Dakar Rally—eyes sharp, throttle open, and fully Ready to Race.
