Five stages lead the participants through the Liwa desert and around the bivouac in the Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort. For the first time fans can follow that event on Eurosport.
Peterhansel said: "I am delighted to sit after the Dakar in a race car and I am very excited to see how the MINI All4 Racing is handling in the desert.”
The MINI All4 Racing was becoming one of the spectators’ favorites during the Dakar Rally in January this year in Argentina and Chile. Previously, the X-raid team had delivered a masterpiece and built the car in just 90 days. Despite the short development time, the MINI All4 Racing was competitive from the beginning.
"The sand dunes of Abu Dhabi and the Desert Challenge are a great challenge for drivers and cars," said X-raid team boss Sven Quandt. "This is just the thing for Stéphane and the MINI All4 Racing."
