Last year the Dakar Rally made the cross-continental trek from its former Africa/Europe base to its new home in South America. Shifting this iconic frontier motorsport event to Argentina and Chile has seen it take on a whole new flavour — but if anything its an even tougher challenge than was the former Dakar. As usual the bikes. cars and trucks encountered all manner of different conditions, and like any Dakar in any year there were countless adventures and stories of skill, courage and dogged endurance. It was Volkswagen which took the honours with its amazing turbo diesel Race Touareg — but this time with former World Rally Champion Carlos Sainz finally scoring the Dakar win that has eluded the Spaniard for so many years. The film footage of the event is extensive and spectacular: this is the world's greatest off-road racing event. Running time: approx. 90 minutes, includes bonus feature.
