Brabec got a final of 38 points totals, bringing home the overall trophy for the Americans. This is Brabec\u2019s second win. Brabec last won the rally in 2020. A technical issue forced him out of last year\u2019s race.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8639\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-Dakar-Rally_Final_Brabec-Bikes-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s a nice way to start the year with a victory,\u201d Brabec said at the finish. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t easy as the course was really tough and so was the competition. Ross and my own team kept me on my toes, but not just me, I think we were keeping everyone on each other\u2019s toes. It was definitely a fight to the end for everyone. I\u2019m happy for all of us, we did an excellent job all of the two weeks. I think number 9 will be my lucky number from now on.\u201d\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8640\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-Dakar-Rally_Final_Sainz-Winner-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nOver in the car class, Carlos Sainz had an early overall lead and stayed there all the way to the finish. Sainz who started racing at the Dakar Rally now becomes the oldest winner in the history of the event. Sainz has won the event at least five times.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8641\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-Dakar-Rally_Final_Cristina-Winner-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nIn the Challenger class, Mitch Guthrie Jr was leading overall until he wasn\u2019t. A heartbreaking mechanical issue would shut Guthrie down for over an hour. He lost the lead and overall race to Cristina Gutierrez. Frenchman Xavier De Soultrait took the overall win in the SSV class. Sara Price finished an impressive fourth for her efforts.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nImages Courtesy of A.S.O &amp; Team Honda HRC","excerpt":"<p>After a very tight race Ricky Brabec finished just seconds ahead of Ross Branch to win the moto class in &hellip;<\/p>","date":"January 19, 2024 15:57","categories":[{"id":25047612,"title":"News","slug":"news"},{"id":25047953,"title":"Rally","slug":"rally"}],"tags":[{"id":25047959,"title":"CARLOS SAINZ","slug":"carlos-sainz"},{"id":25048956,"title":"Cristina Gutierrez","slug":"cristina-gutierrez"},{"id":25049501,"title":"dakar 2024","slug":"dakar-2024"},{"id":25047642,"title":"Dakar Rally","slug":"dakar-rally"},{"id":25049515,"title":"dakar rally winner","slug":"dakar-rally-winner"},{"id":25048358,"title":"honda hrc","slug":"honda-hrc"},{"id":25048637,"title":"mitch guthrie jr","slug":"mitch-guthrie-jr"},{"id":25047957,"title":"rally","slug":"rally"},{"id":25047641,"title":"Ricky Brabec","slug":"ricky-brabec"},{"id":25049092,"title":"ross branch","slug":"ross-branch"},{"id":25047705,"title":"sara price","slug":"sara-price"},{"id":25049487,"title":"Xavier de Soultrait","slug":"xavier-de-soultrait"}]},{"id":6033,"permalink":"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/2022\/12\/13\/red-bull-junior-team-joins-forces-with-can-am\/","title":"Red Bull Junior Team Joins Forces With Can-Am","content":"The Red Bull Junior Team is joining forces with Can-Am as part of a multi-year deal.

In the Final, it was a critical moment because I was fourth and we needed to be third. We had some contact here and there, but there was nothing I could do to overtake. Cristina did a great job to stay very close to the car in front and we knew potentially we were third. At the end it was what we needed so I\u2019m really relieved to be here and really proud to win this championship,\u201d said Loeb.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-5971\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ExtremeEUrguay_Competitors-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nBoth teammates drove smart, keeping the race leaders in sight. Up front and behind, teams were receiving penalties for hitting flags, speeding and other rule infractions. Ultimately the pressure loosened for the Vida Carbon team.
