The Dacia Sandriders has further boosted its push for yet more success in the FIA World Rally-Raid Championship with the addition of Lucas Moraes and navigator Dennis Zenz to its expanded line-up from the 2026 season onwards.

The recruitment of star performers Moraes and Zenz considerably strengthens The Dacia Sandriders' ambitions in the FIA World Rally-Raid Championship (W2RC).

Moraes and Zenz join what will be a four-car W2RC attack from The Dacia Sandriders, which will also include established crews, Spaniards Cristina Gutiérrez and Pablo Moreno, Nasser Al-Attiyah (Qatar)/Fabian Lurquin (Belgium) and Frenchmen Sébastien Loeb/Édouard Boulanger.

Brazilian Moraes, 35, completed the Dakar Rally podium on his event debut in 2023 before placing third in the W2RC standings the following season. A three-time Brazilian champion, Moraes won last month's Rally-Raid Portugal – his maiden W2RC victory – to start Rallye du Maroc as a W2RC title contender after he also finished on the podium in Abu Dhabi and South Africa.

Navigator Zenz, from Germany and also 35, guided Seth Quintero to runner-up in class on the 2023 Dakar Rally. He then partnered the American to outright Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge podiums in 2024 and 2025.

Moraes and Zenz are highly rated W2RC competitors, and their signings will significantly increase The Dacia Sandriders' chances in motorsport's toughest discipline, which is contested by several teams fielding four cars or more.
