Dakar Rally 2011

[egomeister]

Starts tonight - one of my motorsport highlights of the year!

TV coverage on Eurosport if you have it.

[egomeister]

Just had a look at the entry list, couple of interesting entrams in buggys - Norberto Fontana (ex Sauber F1) and Tim Coronel (Tom's brother and sometime WTCC racer)

My money's on Nasser Al-Attiyah for the overall win though.

Is there any other way of watching it? I haven't got Eurosport.

There's a youtube channel, but I don't know what level of coverage that will have:

I can't help but think that the Hummer being more biased towards the sand hurts RG's chances of the big prize. Some awesome footage of it last year in the high speed sections though!

Missing all this.

The Eurosport website has lots of good stuff on the Dakar, and a fair few videos
