#Rallying

While congratulations go out to Cristina Gutiérrez who, alongside her co-driver Pablo Moreno, secured the Number One title at the 2024 Dakar Rally. But the real standout this year was our own American badass, Sara Price.

During her rookie appearance in Saudi Arabia, not only did she keep us on the edge of our seats (narrowly missing a podium finish in her first year), but she became a minor legend as the only female from the USA to win a stage..

Did we mention it was her first year? Most people don't finish this rally raid, let alone accomplish so much during their introduction. True, it was a heartfelt race for Sara but, damn, it was exciting!

Tag along with with Can-Am Off-Road as they take us behind the scenes for Episode 2 of "All In on Dakar".

The Dakar Rally is widely regarded as one of the most difficult off-road races in the world. The race's 12 (or more) stages have competitors crossing brutal terrain over 14 (or more...) days of what proves to be not just a battle to win, but a battle to finish. For 2025, Polaris Factory Racing is returning to the ring with a lineup of highly achieved racers in tow, with sights set on gold.

It's adventure in a competitive format; the Dakar Rally is a legendary proving ground for all disciplines of off-road racer (more on quad controversies later...) from all over the world, which spans a minimum of two weeks. And that's not to include tech inspections, shakedowns, and the minor purgatory of obtaining vehicles from customs.

This tremendous undergoing had, for over forty years, managed to keep Americans off the top step of the podium until Ricky Brabec (motos) and Casey Currie (UTVs) broke that cycle, opening the floodgates for Brabec's second eventual win and A.J. Jones' impressive two champion titles.

The race has never been so exciting for fans on this side of the pond, so the more content we can consume the better. Can-Am has prudently jumped on this opportunity, giving us an insider glimpse at their top tier team. Polaris has been giving them a run for their money lately, making the battle all the more thrilling to watch.

Check out their new series, kicking off Episode 1 with a feature on all-American Jones and teammates Francisco “Chaleco” López Contardo from Chile and Rokas Baciuška out of Lithuania. And let's go "All In on Dakar"!
