The Dakar rally is probably the toughest endurance race on the planet, both for vehicles and people involved.
Heat, sweat, sand and misleading dunes are your main rivals here on your way to cracking down the times in between stages.
However, in such conditions, you body will need more than water and coolness - you’ll also have to eat, but being in a constant rush there is not much time for that.
Apart from 7 liters of fluids per day, the crew makes an eating opportunity out of every spare minute - be it a crunch bar or spaghetti, eating constantly is the key to survive the intense effort of the race. Energizing drinks are also put to a good use here as opposed to other “sports.”
