2013 Dakar Media Thread - Pics and Videos Only

Since there is already media out there for the 2013 Dakar, let's start the media thread.




While it's worth collecting media in it's own thread, it shouldn't take away from the juggernaut that is referred to as the "F5irehose." The dozen or so threads in this forum focused on the Dakar will be replaced by the F5irehose once the race starts. The alternative to "drinking from the fire hose" would be a chaos of separate threads that would make it impossible to follow the Dakar in real-time.

Well, the chaos and the other threads will be there regardless, but to make sure a "media thread" doesn't detract from the flow of information in the official thread, keep discussion in this thread minimal.

Thanks in advance to everyone who creates or finds and posts VIDEO, PICTURES, or AUDIO content for this thread.

T.V. Coverage

The dark arts

If you're having problems posting videos, it might be that you're using Google Chrome. It's usually actually working, it just doesn't show up in "preview," or when you first post it. But once you've posted it, if you hit "refresh" you'll see that the video actually got posted.

(Insider tip: there is a magical keyboard shortcut that will refresh your screen when you hit it, so you can see what other's have posted since you last loaded the page. Only those who "need to know" are trusted with that info, but if you're looking among the F5unction keys you're getting warm.)

Thanks for getting this thread going Dread!

Yeah! Sorry for spamming this thread! But better now than later!
You Sir are the man!
Thank you so much for all your time during the past Dakars and the following ones!

I saved Bianchi Prata's youtube page from last year. He seems to have some good videos this year too. This is the link to his page: http://www.youtube.com/user/bianchiprata?feature=watch

For some reason the embed below changes from the build video to the riding video so just go to the page above.........???

</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>Fresh from Dakar 2012 where he was ranking 2nd overall, Robby Gordon enters with a Hummer which, following preliminary checks, fulfills all regulatory requirements. The American will be at the starting line on 5 January and adds his name to the list of contenders for the title.

Francis Ford Coppola had Matt Dillon say "Don't you know a rumble ain't a rumble without me?" just before the final scene of the film Outsiders. It is exactly in this spirit that Robby Gordon has been simmering away for several weeks whilst awaiting the official confirmation of his participation in Dakar 2013.

Whilst the necessary checks were being carried out on a Hummer that had been disqualified in 2012, the American looked on from afar at the crews who would be competing for the title in a few weeks&#8217; time. Just like his teammate from last year Nasser Al Attiyah and the returning Carlos Sainz, both equipped with brand new buggies, the Californian showman will come to challenge the Minis of Stéphane Peterhansel and Nani Roma.

The H3 that sparked debate in 2012 has been vetted in the workshops of Charlotte: it has been initially declared fit to jump in the dunes of Peru, Argentina and Chile, between 5 and 20 January next year. Gordon, who will be displaying race number 315 on his car in Lima, also aims to improve on the 3rd place gained in 2009, at the first South American Dakar.

The "rebel" will be flanked by his co-pilot in 2011, Kellon Walch. But with the sheer amount of buggies and 4x4s capable of competing at the highest possible level, places on the podium carry an even higher price tag.

Nice videos Uller! I'm not a Nassar fan, but the video where he wrecked was interesting. The Toyota one was good too. After Robby Gordon, I'm cheering for the Toyotas.

This is a creative one. I don't know who advcanada is, but I've been wondering if it's Deadly.

Keep them coming Dread

Last time I looked (a few years ago) I knew Race to Dakar was on youtube, but only in 10 minute clips. I just noticed full 45 minute episodes are there now.
