One of the most gruelling and challenging motorsport events in the world, the Dakar Rally is an unparalleled event for off-road drivers. The world’s leading competitors go up against amateur competitors, for whom the race is often the culmination of their dreams and who come to take up the challenge, and in 2015 there are more than 600 entrants all bidding for glory!
The 2015 edition will run from 3-17 January across Argentina, Bolivia and Chile and will include the largest ever number of Motul-supported entries: 51 covering all four main categories – bike, quad, car and truck. In 2015 there will be an added trial of marathon stages, where drivers cannot use their assistance teams over the 9000km journey. The reliability and technical excellence of the lubricants used will be even more critical.

Headlining the Motul line-up is the factory HRC Rally team who is returning to the motorcycle category of the Dakar with an exciting roster of riders. A five-time Dakar winner in the past, the Honda HRC squad will field an all-star international rider line up: 2013 World Cross Country Rally Champion Paulo Goncalves, Helder Rodriguez from Portugal, 13-time Women’s Trials World Champion and 10-time Women's Trials European Champion in Outdoor Motorcycle Trials, factory rider Laia Sanz, the very rapid Spaniard Joan “Bang Bang” Barreda, and HRC newcomer Jeremias Israel Esquerre of Chile.
The largest representation of Motul-supported teams is in the Cars category and will include Motul’s newest Dakar partner, Toyota Overdrive, an official Toyota team. Another factory team is Team Land Cruiser Toyota Auto Body, a subsidiary of the Japanese automotive giant which manufactures the Land Cruiser in Japan. Motul has been the long-time lubricant partner to Toyota Auto Body who is a multiple champion in the T2 category.
The competition will undoubtedly be as intense as ever, and both men and machines will be tested to the limit. Motul’s proven reliability and endurance will be a crucial part in these teams’ quest for success.
