![]() Tarrés has been flying through the African desert all rally, showing incredible speed and consistency, only finishing outside of the top seven once, securing his maiden rally podium on Stage 9 and besting everything the rally could throw at him. The first order of the day for Stage 12 was a 201km liaison from Mpal to Dakar, something which moisture and sand in the air made a tricky prospect, before riding together during the 22km special parade alongside Lac Rose to the official finish line of the race. ![]() Stirring the memories of Cyril Neveu’s victory for Yamaha in the maiden Paris-Dakar rally in 1979, Tarrés and Botturi brought their Ténéré 700 World Raid bikes back to their spiritual Dakar home on Sunday in the Africa Eco Race in an emotional moment for both the riders and team. The epic Africa Eco Race has involved 12 stages, covering over 6000km from the start in Monaco, all the way down the West Coast of Africa, through Morocco, Mauritania and the finish in Senegal.
