Axel Allétru is an elite French athlete, rally-raid driver, and globally sought-after motivational speaker known for transforming adversity into extraordinary performance. A former junior motocross world champion and multi-title BMX European champion, his life changed in 2010 after a severe crash left him paraplegic at age 20. Defying medical predictions, Axel rebuilt his mobility through intense rehabilitation and went on to become a 12-time French Handisport swimming champion and European Masters Games gold medallist.
Transitioning into rally-raid, he made history by winning the Dakar Rally 2020 in the SSV T3S category against able-bodied competitors—cementing his place among the sport’s new generation of purpose-driven drivers. As a Paralympic torchbearer for Paris 2024, Axel advocates resilience, mindset transformation, and performance under pressure. Through his keynotes, he empowers teams and leaders to overcome setbacks, embrace change, and turn the “impossible” into new possibilities.
