2022 Ricky Brabec Pre-Race Interview: KLIM Dakar Rally Daily Episode 25

Dakar Rally Daily

Racecraft. It’s the game behind any race and the world’s best will tell you it’s as much mental as it is physical. No other competitive event highlights this more than the Dakar Rally. The whole race is a decision. Imagine a race where you are pushed physically, challenged mentally and you’re constantly translating the tools you need to understand completely and accurately to win. Also, the race lasts two weeks. There is no rest.

In this interview we talk to HRC Monster Energy Honda Factory rally racer Ricky Brabec, America’s only Dakar Rally winner and 2021’s runner-up, days before he packed up and headed out to Saudi Arabia. We cover everything from race strategy, upcoming rule changes, training, nutrition, attrition and more.

Get inside with this candid chat from Brabec’s dining room table in California with our hosts as we get ready for the 2022 Dakar Rally to start.
