Description
After months of preparation, Dubai International Baja is finally under way as the competitors face the demanding dunes of Dubai. As the competitors head towards the Al-Futtaim Toyota stage on Leg One in Al Qudra desert on Saturday, all eyes are on the intriguing battle between established off-road star Nasser Al Attiyah in his new Prodrive Hunter and the 21-year-old tyro from Califronia, Seth Quintero who has replaced him at Toyota Gazoo Racing. Far from feeling threatened by the emerging challenge of youth, the 18-times Middle East Rally Champion is energized by the prospect of a battle with Quinetrro and 2021 winner Yazeed Al Rajhi. On the motos, David Megre leads the FIM World Cup Bajas standings heading into this final round of the season. Flying the flag for the local fans is Mohammed Al Balooshi, one of the Middle East’s top motocross and cross-country riders with a string of titles and likely to challenge this weekend after mechanical issues stymied his 2022 bid. On the quads, Frenchman Kevin Giroud will start favourite at an event which will be a new experience for him.
