Nasser words from this https://www.motorsport.com/dakar/new...exit/10566587/
He has a "secret" to keep his car in one piece. A well kept one. |

You both naughty boys! In what the Dacia will differ from this year's Hunter if its put together by Prodrive? Not that much I believe.
Other words from Loeb confirming the farcical aspect of Nasser retirement following major technical issues: "Again? Mine seems to be fine" You know French when they have fun… Who to replace Nasser in 2025 in the Dacia team? |

Not a surprise with so few entrants and already many other categories imo.

It had so few entrants because the ASO restricted them on purpose.

For you both, I think my spying of Dacia design center is a success, I found the inspiration of their new sand buggy: https://www.automobile-propre.com/jo...ca-coute-cher/
No Nasser, no Loeb, its when the drivers of the Ghia Jolly were either Grace Kelly or John Wayne! |

Strange to see him in something different than Audi or VW.

Nani Roma was satisfied with the engine (GT3 !) in Hungaria and says the team is improving. A lot of Ford people in the desert in sight!

It seems that Dakar/ W2RC is more of a priority for Ford than the WRC........

And important TV coverage may be. People having seen the "cars" report they are impressive and seem bigger than the other competitors. Interesting if they intend to fly above the rocks instead of hitting or avoiding them. I think we can expect something spectacular but as to winning for a first appearance I have some doubt.

I admit I am surprised Ford goes "all in". I mean it's not some local Ford Europe project but really Ford Dearborn.
But apparently Dakar (other rally raid events don't really count) is still attractive for manufacturers. Probably because it's relative cheap and in a time of the year when there's little other motorsport. |
