I want to, but no idea what channels it is on. A friend runs vendetta racing who have entered 3 bikes and I can only see what they’re up to briefly via instagram

There is a program on eurosport every night

It's on YouTube. You couldn't make it up really - here was an event which went from Paris to Dakar , in Senegal , before it got too dangerous - Islamic militants and similar unpleasantness .

But because it is (cringe) a bloody brand (like everything else ) they kept the name and first moved it to Chile and Argentina before the Saudis nabbed it . So now you a have bunch of Tonka toy vehicles spoiling a nice empty piece of desert to enable Saudi to sportswash and Audi PR folk to witter on about sustainability .

Coming soon - Les Vingt Quatre Heures du Mans , hosted by your own , your very own Kazakhstan?

Not sure where it is really matters, its still a very hard race to even finish let alone win.
