- About this Image
- Happily putting the disappointment of his 15th place finishing position at the 2010 Dakar Rally behind him, Catalan rider Marc Coma is jubilant at having grabbed the top prize as he claimed his third Dakar crown. ‘It was a very demanding Dakar,’ he says. ‘It is always so, but this year it was even worse. I value this triumph more highly for the great toughness we suffered. Now is the time to enjoy the success.’
