37 stunning pix of what is perhaps the most grueling auto and moto race in the world
Although I’ve never followed the Dakar Rally (formerly known as Paris-Dakar) intently, I’ve nevertheless been fascinated by the machines and men competing in this seemingly impossible-to-finish race. As far as I’m concerned it’s less a race and more a brutal test of human endurance.
The race traverses an incredible variety of terrain over 9000 km in Argentina and Chile, the countries the Rally now routes through as of the past two years.
As you’ll see in what is just a small sample of the happenings in such a test of wills, the 37 images on Boston.com are nothing short of incredible. I’d like to point you to a favorite, but I can’t; they’re all great!
The Rally is only a couple stages from its end, so now’s a good time to catch up on current standings and get hooked on the Dakar!
