04:14dakar champion it's a pretty cool accomplishment
04:18it's history yeside made history for saudi and saudi arabia
04:22David Kastirah, Dakar Director, Saudi Arabia honors us in hosting the Dakar for the seventh consecutive year.
04:36Indeed, since 2020, we have been lucky to explore these incredible vast territories that offer us many possibilities, dunes, tracks, navigation.
04:44And I would like to take this opportunity to thank the MOS, the Ministry of Sports, the SMC, the Saudi Motorsport Company, and of course, the Saudi Arabian Automobile and Motorcycle Federation, led by Prince Khaled, Ben Sultan Al-Abdullar Al-Faisal.
05:03We are very excited to host Dakar for the seventh time in Saudi Arabia.
05:09Last year was a very successful year and was a very special year for us in Saudi Arabia and for Dakar.
05:17For the very first time, a Saudi pilot wins the title for Dakar category, and this is something we are all proud of and very happy to achieve.
05:27Our champion, Yazeed Al-Rajhi, he's the one that made the Saudi dream come true.
05:33Yazeed is a mentor for a lot of youth and drivers in Saudi Arabia and also around the region and the world.
05:42The Saudi next gen, it's very important for us.
05:47We are very happy that the first year was successful, and now we see there's a demand.
05:53We created this program to give the drivers and the co-pilets the opportunity to one day achieve their dream and participate in Dakar.
06:04One of the benefits of hosting Dakar in Saudi Arabia is we have a lot of different landscapes and different trains.
06:13Everybody watched for the last six years, the beautiful scenery and the beautiful landscape.
06:22A lot of people from all over the world now know what Saudi Arabia and what can it offer.
06:28This is something that we are very happy and pleased, and we're very committed to offer something new, and we're very happy with the results.
06:39We've seen the competition in the last editions of Dakar in Saudi Arabia, and we see how close it was in the different categories.
06:51I mean, if you like bikes, if you like cars, if you like trucks, this is very good for the sports.
06:58The next edition, the seventh edition, we will see a closer competition between the drivers and the riders,
07:05and that's what we are hoping for, and that's what we are looking for.
07:09A lot of fight, a lot of fun, a lot of action.
07:12All the car lovers and all the car followers, see you in Yanbu in January for a new adventure and a new challenge.
07:18Now let's turn our attention, David, to the 2026 route. What can we expect?
07:26A top Dakar awaits the competitors with long special stages, once again,
07:30plus a little novelty with two marathon stages of a somewhat new kind.
07:34They will be mostly on their own in the desert, but we'll come back to that later.
07:38This will be a Dakar for the tough ones, and everything will start in a few weeks in Europe.
07:43Yes, starting November the 27th, 28th, and 29th, the competitors will first go to Santa Susana for administrative checks,
07:50then to the port of Barcelona to embark and head to Yanbu,
07:54where we will all meet them at the end of December for the start of the 2026 Dakar.
07:58So here it is, the new map for Dakar 2026.
08:28And David, we will start in Yanbu with a prologue.
08:33You need a prologue of nearly 30 kilometers to kick off the competitors and maybe to determine the starting order for stage one.
08:40The first stage is a loop around Yanbu with already 300 kilometers of specials to cover.
08:45But it will be easier than last year, don't worry.
08:48Quite varied, with beautiful valleys to cross, some rocks.
08:52So we decided to put a pit stop, a service point, in the middle of the special in case some have already had a flat tire halfway through.
09:00Then we'll return to Yanbu.
09:01And the very next day, we'll immediately follow with the first big special of this edition,
09:07with already 400 to 500 kilometers to cover for stage two, which will take us to Alula.
09:13This is a slightly tougher stage.
09:15Some will remember, three or four years ago, it was quite fatal to the leaders, with lots and lots of flats.
09:21So we got rid of some rocks, a bit, of course.
09:25There will also be a pit stop in the middle of the special, again, to allow those with flats to repair their wheels.
09:31Rocks at the start, sand, some dunes already, with an arrival directly at the Alula bivouac.
09:36Then we'll quickly follow with stage three, 420 kilometers already.
09:40We're increasing the distance, an absolutely magnificent stage around Alula.
09:46We know Alula, it's truly the beautiful spot in Saudi Arabia, with its grand canyons, huge rocks, where navigation is not easy.
09:54You have to choose your track.
09:56420 kilometers with lots of sand, sandy tracks, dunes will come later, but this will start to make a difference.
10:03And it's precisely on these first stages of the Dakar that we will discover the new candidates of the Saudi next gen.
10:09This initiative, launched in 2025, aims to discover new Saudi talents.
10:17For all the men and women who have dreams of one day becoming a rally driver, I tell them to chase their dreams.
10:24One day, trust me, you will make it.
10:37I am happy.
10:39Because I like Dakar.
10:42Dakar is life.
10:44Dakar is here.
10:50We have a lot of potential here.
10:54We have a lot of talent.
10:55They just need the opportunity, and they just need somebody to open the doors for them.
11:00Go the next gen!
11:02This is a very good start, and base, and a learning platform for us young Saudis to hope for the best.
11:12The most important thing I learned was patience.
11:13We had very rocky sections, which if you push, you damage the car, but also you can't be so slow, because I wanted to win the program.
11:25I really wanted to get the chance to race in the car, because this is the opportunity I couldn't miss.
11:40Have a program like Saudi Next Generation program, possible for Saudi youth, is a very good opportunity and a very good chance to put us Saudi drivers on the rally scene.
11:53What did he do?
11:53What did he do?
11:54He did.
11:55He did.
11:56He is a big example for us Saudi drivers.
11:59I see myself one day as being as good as him, and my hope I compete with him.
12:08For me, my ambition is to finish the car with the least amount of issues possible, and if I have issues, you sort them in the fastest way and the most efficient way.
12:38And there will be two teams from the 2025 Saudi Next Gen promotion participating in Dakar 2026.
12:47Adrien Lepandolini, responsible for Dakar development, so what exactly is the Saudi Next Gen about?
12:54Next Gen.
12:55Saudi Next Gen is an initiative we launched in 2025 aimed at introducing young Saudi talents and giving them the means to discover and participate in Dakar in the future.
13:06And there were many applications for this 2026 edition.
13:09Yes, following the first edition, we launched a call for applications in August and received over 50 applications for driver positions and about 25 for co-drivers.
13:18We will select only five drivers and five co-drivers for a total of five teams.
13:24All that under the control of the Saudi Arabian Motorsports and Motorcycle Federation.
13:28Yes, exactly, the SAMH with whom we work hand in hand on this project that also aims to combine other national championships of the Federation within the kingdom and attract young talents from other disciplines to rally rate and the Dakar.
13:41So what will happen during these five days?
13:43Is it an intensive training?
13:45Exactly, it's five days of intensive training at the start of the Dakar in Yambou, surrounded by sports professionals, mixing theoretical training, practice and the Dakar-style stages.
13:57The goal is ultimately to find the future Yazid al-Raji who will participate in Dakar 2027, right?
14:04Exactly, the experts supervising the training will select the most competitive team to participate in Dakar 2027.
14:12And we continue with the discovery of the Haïl province and a special stage, a marathon stage.
14:21Indeed, a marathon stage, it will start with a split route already, two specials in one, since we'll have motorbikes on one side and cars and trucks on the other.
14:30A long special of over 400 kilometers again, with a lot of navigation and incredible landscapes near Alula.
14:38And in the evening, it's refugee bivouac, that's the new term.
14:43Exactly, a novelty.
14:44We've taken up the principle of the 48-hour chrono where there were no structures at the competitors' arrivals.
14:49However, they will be grouped, all the motorcycles in one bivouac and the cars and trucks in another, and they will have to be completely self-sufficient as there is no structure.
14:59But just that, that's already a lot when you're alone in the desert.
15:05They will have a sleeping bag with a small mattress underneath, a tent, obviously, to keep warm because it's not always very warm in the desert at this time of the year.
15:14And of course, the ration. The rations have been improved with soups, vegetables, pasta, morning coffee, desserts, everything needed.
15:24But they will have to heat them, add water, so they will have to manage. But that's the Dakar, that's the adventure.
15:31And the next day, we continue with the fifth state of the Dakar.
15:34Yes, because it's not over. They will steep alone in the deserts, have to work a bit on their cars and motorcycles and trucks to fix them, and finish this marathon stage with another 350 kilometers.
15:45We've been a bit kinder on the second part because, as we'll see later, the next stage is very tough.
15:50So, stage five is a bit easier to ease into and allow everyone to return to the city of Ohio and recover.
15:57Then we continue towards Riyadh for the last stage of the first week and a rest day.
16:04Yes, but this rest day will have to be earned, because stage six is very complicated.
16:10Lots of sand, many dunes. It's the first big dune section of the rally, and I think it will finish very, very, very late.
16:18It was scheduled the day before the rest day, since there is a specificity where you can arrive until 2 p.m. the next day.
16:24But I think some will spend the night there and maybe even the morning, so it might be very late until they reach the rest day in Riyadh.
16:31The Dakar continues to think about the future of the discipline and, for three years now, has launched Dakar Future Mission 1000.
16:41What's it all about, Adrian? Mission 1000 is part of the Dakar Future vision, and it is a race adapted and dedicated to alternative energy vehicles.
16:49What kind of vehicles?
16:50So we accept any type of project as long as they fit into one of the following groups, hydrogen, electric or hybrid.
16:57The idea is to cover a certain number of kilometers every day.
16:59Exactly. It's an adapted route on Dakar-like terrain, but just about 100 kilometers a day.
17:04The 2026 edition will consist of 13 stages, so about 1,300 kilometers of special stages for these futuristic projects.
17:11But it's a competition. There is a ranking. Absolutely, there is a ranking, but the main goal is for it to be a race for technology.
17:18So time is important, but more importantly, it's about completing the full 1,300 kilometers to earn the most points for their project.
17:26And who will we find in the Dakar Future Mission 1000's 2026?
17:31This year, in the two-wheel category, we will have three projects, including two Chinese manufacturers and a Spanish rider who will be riding a Stark.
17:39Stark Future is a Spanish electric motorcycle brand.
17:43We will also have, as in the last two editions, a Spanish truck of Jordi Juventini running on a hydrogen hybrid.
17:50And precisely, a press conference will be organized, presenting the different 2026 candidates and upcoming projects.
18:04We continue with the second part of this Dakar and two stages south of the capital, Riyadh.
18:09Indeed, we will head straight south with two big specials.
18:13Stage 7 to start with, nearly 500 kilometers of special.
18:17Perhaps not very difficult, despite passing through dunes in the middle, but with navigation and all those kilometers full of traps.
18:24We will then reach Wadi, Wadi Adawasir, where we will do a loop.
18:28It's been a while since we've returned there, and it will be another loop of more than 450 kilometers.
18:34So, two tough stages.
18:36So, you have to be careful and well prepared to restart after the rest day, because two times 450 kilometers can cause some damage.
18:46There will be a touch of nostalgia on this eighth stage for the Dakar classic competitors, returning for the sixth year, with a mass start.
18:55Explanation with the event coordinator, David Serriès.
18:59The mass start has always been part of Dakar's history, and it was introduced last year on Dakar Classic.
19:08We are repeating it again.
19:10There will be a start by fours on navigation tests in wide open areas where safety conditions are met.
19:17It was well liked last year, so we are repeating this experience.
19:22In any case, Dakar Classic continues to attract more and more enthusiasts.
19:27More and more enthusiasts, and we continue to grow.
19:31We will have nearly 100 crews at the start in Yambou.
19:35Yes, Dakar Classic is doing well.
19:37With new vehicles every year that make everyone dream.
19:41Every year, new projects come out of the garages of enthusiasts.
19:46And this year again, there are some very beautiful projects.
19:48We can be very satisfied.
19:50The principle remains the same.
19:53It's a regularity rally.
19:55It's a regularity rally with navigation tests, dune tests, and dune crossings.
20:01The new feature this year is the super regularity stage, mixing regularity and navigation, which will spice things up and add more sporting challenges.
20:11More dunes, more navigation, more autonomy as well.
20:16Yes, more autonomy.
20:18Dakar Classic is quite demanding.
20:20We try to push each participant's limits while ensuring they have lots of fun and see beautiful places.
20:25Saudi Arabia has a magnificent landscape, and this is the ingredients, the alchemy, that makes Dakar Classic successful.
20:34Thank you very much, David Serriès.
20:36Dakar Classic and Dakar competitors continued in the Asia region with a new marathon stage.
20:42Explanation with the teams that designed those stages.
20:45Dessiner une étape, c'est faire vivre une expérience à des gens.
20:54La première chose à faire, c'est très simple, c'est déterminer une ville de départ, une ville d'arrivée, et à partir de là, c'est raconter une histoire.
21:02C'est complètement de l'imagination, c'est du travail, c'est de l'image satellite.
21:06C'est des soirées, des nuits, souvent, où chercher les pistes partout.
21:10Donc on dessine, on dessine, on dessine, des heures et des heures.
21:13Attention, là, tu prends une piste invisible à droite.
21:20Après, on est venus voir sur le terrain, et c'est là que tout se fait, c'est le premier passage, en fait, où il faut tout écrire.
21:30Sinon, on peut se rendre compte de ce qu'il faut alléger ou pas alléger, durcir, pas durcir.
21:35Évidemment, il n'y a rien de tel que le terrain pour comprendre la difficulté.
21:37Là, je suis perdu la trace, elle est plus à droite, mais ce n'est pas très évident, ce plateau.
21:47OK, là, tu es arrivé sur le col, et après le col, il faut te demander à y voler.
21:51Le plaisir, c'est de trouver une passe magique, une grande descente en sable que personne n'a jamais faite, un truc un peu compliqué pour y arriver.
21:59La 9-10, c'était l'idée d'avoir une étape marathon, donc deux jours consécutifs, corsés, beaucoup de kilomètres,
22:16avec des étapes qui jouent sur la mécanique et qui jouent sur les hommes, puisqu'ils vont se retrouver sans assistance pour la mécanique,
22:24et entre eux, sans aucune infrastructure.
22:29Il faut trouver 900 kilomètres non-stop, sans goudron, sans rien.
22:32Donc ça, ça ne se fait pas partout, évidemment.
22:34Et là, on a vraiment le parcours idéal pour le faire.
22:37On arrête au milieu des dunes, juste à l'entrée des dunes, avec une première étape assez classique, mais beaucoup de kilomètres,
22:42et une deuxième, où il n'y a que des dunes et beaucoup de difficultés.
22:45Donc là, il va y avoir des plantages, ils vont se perdre, il va falloir lutter avec ces montées et être possible dans les dunes, etc.
22:52Donc il y a beaucoup d'histoires à l'intérieur de deux étapes qui en feront un gros, gros morceau de cette édition de 2026.
23:03Je ne me lasserai jamais du plaisir du matin, du soleil qui se lève au soleil qui se couche.
23:08On avait des plaines avec des dunes au fond, etc.
23:13C'est un endroit où j'ai beaucoup de plaisir à créer le parcours, parce que c'est beau, et que je sais que c'est difficile, et tout le monde l'attend avec impatience.
