Driver: #17 – Antoine L’Estage

Coyote Rallye Team

Hometown: St-Jean-Sur-Le-Richelieu, Quebec

Age: 34
ntoine L'Estage was born into the world of rally. As a young boy, he and his siblings Mathieu and Laurence-Fanny would watch their father compete as a driver. Now, many years later, L’Estage has over a decade of rally experience and is the leader of the L'Estage rally family.


The Canadian driver began his rally career in a 2-wheel-drive car and quickly developed a reputation as one of the fastest drivers in North America. He is now among a short list of drivers who can say they've won every event in the Canadian championship.
The 2006 and 2007 Canadian rally champion, L’Estage lives with his co-driver/girlfriend, Nathalie, in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec. He hopes to one day continue this family dynasty by passing his passion on to his two children.

ubaru Rally Team USA driver Travis Pastrana has dominated rallying in the USA since switching his focus away from Fresstyle Motocross. He has been on the podium in 17 of his last 22 rallies, with 8 wins, including a Gold and a Bronze Medal at the last two X Games Rally events. Pastrana is the 2006 and 2007 Rally America National Champion. In 2006, at only 23 years-old, he became the youngest ever American Rally Champion, then defended his crown in 2007.
Pastrana has made the switch to rallying after becoming a legend on two wheels. He is Freestyle Motocross’ brightest star and is world famous for his death defying stunts on his motorcycle. He has achieved more in his 23 years than most racers have done in their entire careers, including winning a string of National Amateur Motocross titles, becoming World Freestyle Champion at age 14 and 125cc National and Supercross champion. He has won the gold in Freestyle MotoX a record six times at the X Games, and landed the first ever double backflip in competition.
