Monster Energy Honda Team all set for the 2020 Dakar
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
With the shakedown completed and the administrative and technical verification processes carried out, #monsterenergyhondateam is now 100% set to get the 2020 Dakar Rally underway. The five factory riders, along with the entire team supporting them, are poised to tackle the world's toughest rally on January 5.
Jeddah, Saudi Arabia's second city, will host the build-up to the start of the Dakar Rally 2020. After the recent arrival in the most extensive country in the Middle Eastern region, #monsterenergyhondateam, with their five official riders, have made it through a positive ‘shakedown’ with everything deemed to be in order. Today, Friday, saw all team members pass through, first, the administrative verifications and, subsequently, the technical ones, with the entire entourage of vehicles and personnel given the all-clear to race.
Argentine rider Kevin Benavides, runner-up in 2018 and fifth in the most recent edition, will face his fourth Dakar, aiming at improving on previous results while reasserting himself as a candidate for the overall victory. The number seven will adorn the bike's fairings for the rider from Salta.
Also among the favourites will be American #rickybrabec, number nine. The occasion marks a fifth participation in the world's toughest rally for the Californian. Brabec has experienced the Dakar in its rawest form, after being forced to withdraw just two days from the end of the last edition while holding a very solid overall lead.
Another rider likely to be in hot contention for the victory will be #joanbarreda, and not without reason, as the Spaniard has so far racked up 23 Dakar stage wins. With the number twelve decorating his bike, the rider from Castellón will be making a tenth Dakar participation, moving into the “legendary rider”category. What better way to celebrate the feat than on the top step of the podium!
Young #joseignaciocornejo finished both his Dakar participations for #monsterenergyhondateam amongst the top ten. The Chilean believes it's time to make a move upwards and has high hopes that the Saudi terrain could be a perfect match for his riding style.
South African rider #aaronmare, a residence in Dubai, is the latest addition to the team and will focus on the steep day-by-day learning curve that his first Dakar outing requires. The young rider is skilled in the dunes and should be the ideal pilote to round out the #monsterenergyhondateam.
The 2020 Dakar Rally starts on January 5 from the starting ramp set up in the Jeddah Corniche.
