2026 Tatts Finke Desert Race Ambassador: Jessie Butcher ✨

Hey, I’m Jessie! You might recognise me from previous years as an Ambassador. I’m a born and bred Alice Springs local, although I moved to Perth back in 2021. Even though I don’t live in the Red Centre anymore, I’ve always loved Finke and somehow always find a way to make it back to Alice when race weekend rolls around.

I’m someone who’s always looking for ways to push myself outside my comfort zone. When I’m not counting down the days to Finke, you’ll usually find me jumping in an ice bath, pushing myself to try new things (enter my running era), or more recently even representing The Shaka Project as an ambassador for their mental health and su***de prevention charity.

For me, being an ambassador is all about a genuine love for the race and being willing to jump in and help wherever it’s needed. The race is honestly my favourite event of the year, and I don’t think anything beats the adrenaline rush of standing trackside (except maybe racing… for those far more skilled than myself!).

Looking forward to seeing you all on race weekend! 🤙🏼

2026 Tatts Finke Desert Race Ambassador: Taylor Toni ✨

Hi there, my name is Taylor. I’m a university student and legal assistant from Newcastle, NSW.
I’m so excited to be part of the Tatts Finke Desert Race as an ambassador this year! Motorsports have always been a big part of my life. I love being around the bikes, the people and the atmosphere that comes with events like this. When I’m not working or studying, you’ll usually find me at the beach or catching up with friends and family.

I can’t wait to experience everything the 50th anniversary has to offer!

See you all at Finke 2026!

2026 Tatts Finke Desert Race Ambassador: Levi Van Panhuis ✨

Hi, I'm Levi, the Finke Desert Race's first male ambassador! I live on the Sunshine Coast and am an exercise physiologist by trade but also own and operate an allied health and sport performance clinic working with many top motorsport athletes across all disciplines.

I have been around motorbikes since the age of 9 and have been a competitor in Finke twice. Whilst my own racing often takes a backseat, I stay involved attending all supercross/motorcross nationals events, working with riders & drivers to prepare.

If I'm not working or on my bike I enjoy long distance running races and spending time with my wife and dog.

I'm excited to be apart of this years ambassador team and cannot wait to be around the energy of race week!

2026 Tatts Finke Desert Race Ambassador: Tennille Crack ✨

Hi, I’m Tennille! Born and raised here in Alice Springs and you will find me working at the Alice Springs Hospital in operating theatre department as one of the supply officers.

Growing up with Finke at my doorstep, I’ve seen firsthand the grit, community and tradition that make this event so iconic. I’m passionate about health, fitness and pushing myself to achieve goals - something that aligns perfectly with the determination you see out on the track. The atmosphere, the red dirt and the buzz around prologue day never gets old and that’s something I’m excited about.

I’m so proud to be representing such a special event and can’t wait to be trackside with you all in 2026!
