Davide Sottocornola (born 27 September 1979) got on a bike for the first time at the age of six. At 12 years old, after his first XC races, he understood that he was suited to downhill. As a junior he runs in Dh and manages to wear the blue jersey at the World Championships and European Championships, once he has passed the category he continues to run with good results in national and international competitions downhill and then quit and dedicate himself only to Enduro.
