  • 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!!

      Totally agree

      What channel was the tv coverage on? I didn't see it.

      I only saw the highlights on YT

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

    Carlos Sainz winning the Dakar at 61.. what a legend; I've been following his rally career since the 80's.

  • @paulsansome1628
    @paulsansome1628 Před 4 měsíci +59

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

  • @Slingshotgixxer
    @Slingshotgixxer Před 4 měsíci +27

    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.

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

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

  • @pope9870

    Do it Harry! A build series for you and your son's Dakar machine would rock.

    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.

    Superb video!! Many thanks, Harry and Charlie, too. So many interesting bits. I was fortunate to be at the Dakar when Jutta Kleinschmidt won back in 2001. One of the best motorsports experiences for me, ever.

    Kudos to the team and especially to whoever was involved in tuning this beast, and whoever designed and fabricated the exhaust system!!!

  • @luke_3_113
    @luke_3_113 Před 4 měsíci +4

    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!

    Great video! Thank you Harry. I may have said it already, but I am so greatful that you don't put any muzak in these videos. So many times I hear ytbers say "just listen to this engine sound" and dump some shitty tune in the mix "to spice it up". Big THANK YOU for letting us hear the engines!

  • @MichaelWilliams-ub3ow
    @MichaelWilliams-ub3ow Před 4 měsíci +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.

  • @WizzardPrang
    @WizzardPrang Před 4 měsíci
