For its 35th edition, the 6th
to be organised in South America, the Dakar will set off on 5th January from
Rosario in Argentina and finish in Valparaiso in Chile on 18th January, after a
brief visit to Bolivia, which will become the rally's 28th host country. The
2014 route, with several marathon stages on the agenda, will test the
competitors’ race tactics as much as their endurance.
The drivers and teams
participating will have to rely on their physical resistance and their
competitive spirit in particular, imbued with the values of off-road races, to
achieve their objective. Although the Dakar’s first visit to Bolivia will
principally focus on discovery, the competitors’ technical and sporting
performances will essentially be tested in Argentina and Chile, which will be
explored in very different way compared to the rally’s 5 previous editions in
South America.
