   2 Raid comparing Africa Eco Race Dakar and South America.

Africa Eco Race first stage of 658 km through the dunes of Morocco.

First stop South America Dakar 242 Km from the spectators.

The real challenge for a pilot Rally is a great raid. But DAKAR great he took away only the name. The challenge South America is not compatible with the difficulty of the stages in Africa. Many pilots are forced to desert the Africa Eco Race (EX DAKAR)

For commitments with teams that prefer to run in South America for the great advertising media that the name "Dakar" is taken away from Africa.

It 's absurd that an event is called Dakar finish in Santiago.

We asked the organizers of Africa Eco Race if you can move the date of their event. The answer was "no" because the hot weather and high temperatures in Africa would not allow the carrying out the raid. Thing in South America should be made to avoid the summer and too hot. But for fear that many drivers are seduced by the magic of Africa dates remain the same.

So the pure African rally is covered by a symbol that belonged to him (Dakar)

It 's the case that this name come back to talk about Morocco - Mauritania - Senegal - Busines sells the dreams that do not exist, Africa is a real dream.
