  • For Toyota Gazoo Racing, Dakar 2024 was the 14th time they had competed in this legendary race, which they won in 2023 and 2022. I joined them in 2024 to see if they could make it three in a row..

    I thought this years Dakar TV coverage was fantastic but, as ever, Harry has knocked this out of the park with brilliant behind the scenes footage along with amazing chats with the teams involved…. Top notch!!

      I think Harry's more likely to 'hit it for six' [cricket] than 'knock it out of the park' [baseball]...

    Harry doing some premier Harrying on this one. I’m calling it: the Attenborough of things on wheels. National treasure.

    Anyone who has rode a motorcycle off road can fully appreciate the skill and confidence of those bikers riding in those conditions at that speed while also navigating for hours on end day after day , its truly amazing.

    Those bikes squirrelling at full chat! Madness. It takes a certain lack of a sense of self preservation to do that.

    Harry and his son do wonders to present Dakar to us! The channel really has a range of content and that keeps things fresh.

    It's mighty encouraging to see Gazoo Racing sporting a 3.5L turbocharged V6. No doubt it drinks fuel, but the noise is just awesome.

    Great stuff! The cars blazing across the sand look pretty hairy, but the bikes must be brutal and scary. Mind you, my closest experience would be on a scooter in Asia, heading down a track to the beach :P
    Usually not on full throttle!

  • @MichaelWilliams-ub3ow
    @MichaelWilliams-ub3ow 4 месяца назад +2

    Two takeaways from this incredible video:
    1. Toyota deserved far more credit than they received for the generous invitation and unbelievable access. More brand plugging would have been totally justified and appropriate.
    2. The Mohican should have been bright red.

    @BjornChrBreda 4 месяца назад +1

    The track looks like Mongolia / just sand and gravel. I did the Mongol Rally in 2008 with a standard Nissan Micra, we drove at 40 km/h as then the supension could cope / doing 60 km/h meant constant little breakdowns - bolts coming undone etc. After four days in Mongolia we reached Ulan Batar and the suspension was completely destroyed as the bushings had perished. We had 5 puntures in Mongolia and only 4 xtra tyres. Team The Lost Vikings (from Norway). Quite an adventure through 21 countries in 5 weeks and 18000 km.

    Wow fantastic coverage Sir Harry. The TV coverage is excellent since it tracks the progress of competitors but here Harry brings you into the dirt of the race it shows the incredible speed of these guys something which the slick tv coverage does not really capture well. These cars and drivers are crazy it’s amazing that they even finish one days event let along do the whole Dakar the best race on this planet. Till next year Sir Harry.
