This year's race was great! But at the end the winners were the same as the last year. In cars Peterhansel (MINI), in motorbikes Despres (KTM) and in quads Patronelli (Yamaha).
The route was hard. It started in Perú, then Argentina and finally Chile, trough its deserts.
There's a lot of sand in those countries but there are not as many changes year by year since it arrived to S America some years ago.
The routes can be the same.
There are huge differences between Europe-Africa race and South America one!
There in Africa there is a lot of sand of the Sahara and the routes can be different. (Taking into account that Dakar were there 20+ years).
The challenge of the Dakar organization is to return to Africa!
In America they can design different routes (Bolivia, Brazil and Colombia) but is not in off for this race.
