Dakar 2026 | Tappa 8 | Wadi Ad-Dawasir - Wadi Ad-Dawasir

A circular stage that digs deep, both into the rider's equipment and into his mind. Stage 8 unfolds entirely around Wadi Ad-Dawasir, a total of 717 km, including 481 km of special stages in the heart of the desert. Deep sand, endless dunes, and sections where navigation becomes crucial test the rider's ability to manage pace and energy. It's a day that allows no pauses, where maintaining a clear head until the last waypoint makes the difference between arriving well and paying the price. ⸻ If you like content like this, support the Rally POV project by purchasing a Bivacco Italia t-shirt or merchandise: http://kck.st/4puQ41f Thanks to… You who supported the crowdfunding campaign @ediltech_srl @eicmaofficial @canella.it @officine_rigamonti @trektab_official SynColor.com @billboardsrl @blue.engineering @gazzettamotori @il_modulo_di_gamba_srl McDonald's Imola ElettroPol by Polini Simone @affralux @isyluce @giambeninisrl @generelli_sa Assieco.it @ristorante.pionono @ride4nico @motorex_powersports @ci.caravaninternational @lussocaravan @westwind.moto @scottmotosports @rockracingworld @alpinestarsadventure @motoclubrs77 @boano_race_parts @dunlopmoto @mrwolfsolve @oversuspension.official @blackbird_racing
