Looks like only 2 Bombardier left in class after stage 5

 

I'm without the speed channel so its killing me not being able to keep up with TV coverage on the race. I think I'll go find the website and see how its progressing. Keep us updated!

 

Actually, OLN outbid SPEED for rights to broadcast the Dakar this year, so it's on OLN now. Bummer is, they won't even START broadcasting the rally until Jan 22.

Didnt know OLN had it this year, nor did I know they were going to delay it so long. Last year Speed had the start broadcast the same day and had daily showings, albiet delayed. If OLN isnt going to air anything until the rally is already over then there really isnt any point in it.

I guess I'll have to suffer through the spotty reporting and the world's smallest pictures on the official site. Anyone know of any race team or enthusiast sites with better coverage?

 

like usual they show hit and miss quad info? i don't even see any class for quads.

 

WOW

The average cost to compete in the Dakar is $98,000.00[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
