PROFILE & AMBITIONS
After bidding farewell to his Toyota, Bebeto hopped into a roaring Subaru Impreza N10 and the results? Let’s just say the pace note now reads: “Flat out, all the time.” With impressive showings in Mbarara and Masaka, this rising star is already proving he’s more than just a rookie with dreams he’s a contender with boost.
But he’s not going in blind. Holding the roadmap to success (literally) is co-driver Mwambazi Lawrence a Pearl Rally veteran who’s seen everything from flying stones to flying cars. He brings the calm, the calculations, and just enough caffeine to keep the notes flowing even when things get sideways. He’s the kind of co-driver who could recite a roadbook in his sleep.
