Career

Cerutti began riding motocross at the age of 14, after having started his racing career with BMX. At 16 years old, Cerutti made his debut in enduro and, within three years, was already fighting for the Italian Junior Championship podium.[citation needed]

After winning one European and four Italian enduro awards, since 2015 Cerutti became dedicated to Rally raid. He quickly collected numerous successes in this discipline as well: a 12th-place finish[1] at his first Dakar Rally and three first-place finished[2][3] in the Italian Rally Championship, racing for Motoclub Intimiano.

In 2018, Cerutti achieved 20th place[4][5] at Dakar Rally and opened the 2019 season racing with Solarys Racing.[6]
