I've been following this rally - but mostly because of its Dakar connection. The route was short on the kind of awe-inspiring helicopter shots for which the Dakar is famous. Too many long liasons with short specials in this event. Repeating a route - even in reverse - just doesn't cut it for competitive drama.
But this really was really a consolation rally, organized in haste, for those who had spent a year planning and training for the cancelled Dakar. I can forgive its flaws.
I'm waiting for next January and South America. Please let there be lots of difficult terrain - and fierce competition. And - please - some stability in Africa, so we can return to the desert someday.
