AFRICA RACE 2024 - STAGE N°6 : DAKHLA -> CHAMI

Africa Race 2024
Monday, January 8, 2024 - 23:49
La caravane de l’AFRICA ECO RACE s’est levée aux aurores ce lundi 8 janvier pour effectuer la liaison de 370 km vers la frontière Marocaine. Un magnifique buffet typique marocain attendait les participants avant de sortir du pays et d’emprunter le No Man’s Land vers la Mauritanie. Après avoir passé la douane et effectué une liaison de 30 km, les concurrents de cette 15ème édition ont pris le départ depuis Boulanouar pour la spéciale de 205 km vers le bivouac de Chami. Une entrée en matière idéale pour découvrir les pistes sablonneuses empruntées tout au long de cette deuxième semaine.

AFRICA RACE 2024 - STAGE N°5 : FORT CHACAL -> DAKHLA

Africa Race 2024

This final stage of the AFRICA ECO RACE on Moroccan soil was completed at lightning speed, with the 404km selective sector completed in 03:31:53 for the bike and 03:31:53 for the car. An identical time to the nearest second! Something rarely seen in the history of Cross-Country Rallies. This is certainly due to the fact that since this year, the cars, SSVs and trucks have all been neutralised for 20 minutes, just like the bikes. It's quite a coincidence, but one that deserves to be highlighted.

For some competitors in the AFRICA ECO RACE 2024, Stage 3 may have left its mark, but for others, the motivation was very much in evidence this morning at the start of the bivouac at Oued Draa, not far from Tagounite. It has to be said that this 467km special was particularly long, over varied terrain with some rather demanding navigation at the end of the route.
