Introduction

BORN TO RACE.
RAISED IN THE DESERT.

Born in 2002, Seth Quintero grew up in San Marcos, California, where his family spent their recreational time off-roading in the desert. He first rode a quad bike at just four years old — the start of a life spent chasing speed across sand.

A Red Bull athlete since his teens, Seth made history at the Dakar Rally, becoming the youngest stage winner in the event’s history at just 18 years old. Competing across the FIA World Rally-Raid Championship (W2RC) and international off-road events, he has established himself as a generational talent on the world stage.
