"After so many days eating dust, the only thing you feel like is a good car wash... and maybe for the sand to stop coming out of the seams of the suit for a week."
The group's synergy as a pillar

Elements that defined the team:- Operating with precision throughout the competition.
- Resolving minor mechanical issues without losing key time.
- A decisive coordination between all parts of the team.
A significant return
This second overall place not only represents a sports success for Nani Roma, but also validates the reliability and work behind a private project in one of the toughest competitions on the planet. It demonstrates that with meticulous planning, a united team, and impeccable execution, high-level goals can be achieved. 🚗💨
