New Year's wishes and the road to Dakar 2014 launched

We wish you all a good technique, good quality fuel and the most importantly the right people in your team and surroundings to the 2014 year. We believe that not only the fun to drive will come, but also a chance to win all the chosen categories and in for you important races. We have already started the journey to the most important in this year. The team flew to the South America in two groups. The majority hit the road through London and Vienna to Buenos Aires from the garage in Frenstat at noon on the last day of last year. After arrival they will go by bus to the port to pick up the technique and then they will move it to the start of the race in Rosario. All the scrutineering and the opening ceremony will take place in Rosario. The second group, including the Queen 69 and Princess crew is departing Vienna today and will go directly to the starting point.

The philosophy of extreme off-road race 2014 Rally Dakar will soon be fulfil. Competitors will have to drive nearly 5000 km in the special stages this year, which is the highest number for almost a decade. The participants will also have to count with diversity of terrain.

David Castera, the sports director of the Dakar commented the upcoming rally:

"We know that cumulative fatigue is one of the most complex elements to master on the Dakar. With an average of 50 additional kilometres to cover each day compared to last year, we have increased the degree of difficulty by one or two levels: this extra distance will affect everyone! For motorcycle and quad bikes, there will also be two marathon stages, which will oblige their riders to pace themselves and take good care of their vehicles. This is the essence of the off-road races."

And we will bring you again the fresh news and comments. The next will cover the race route and the scrutineering of the Queen 69 and Princess that will come in a few days. But so far we are going and look forward. We will accept with honour and humbly the greatest challenge in the category of off-road races. We will be glad if you will be there again and intensively with us!
