FOUR HORSEMEN<br />

Dakar Rally 2020 looks set to be something special. Resettled from South<br />

America to Saudi Arabia (let’s not go into the politics) it’s all-new terrain and<br />

with some variety, not least of which will be the mega-dunes that are promised<br />

to give the lesser privateers ‘a very bad time’. Who’ll win? We don’t know, but<br />

as ever it’s a brave man who bets against orange. This year KTM’s team is as<br />

formidable as ever. Holding the number one plate is Australia’s Toby Price,<br />

Dakar winner in 2016 and 2019; if he wobbles there’s Brit Sam Sunderland,<br />

Dakar winner in 2017 and current Rallies world champion; if those two falter<br />

then third man is Austria’s Matthias Walkner, Dakar winner in 2018. Only their<br />

fourth man, the apprentice (as it were) Argentinian Luciano Benavides doesn’t<br />

have a previous Dakar win to his name, but 8th last year he’ll still be in the<br />

frame. Yep, 12 days, 7856km – it all kicks off on January 5. Oh, and <strong>RUST</strong> will<br />

there with our man Craig Keyworth (rider 114)…<br />
