Regional stars will be competiting in the event, however biggest of the lot is the defending winner, Nasser Al-Attiyah, who has ditched his all conquering Volkswagen Toureg (well VW have pulled the rug) and hopped aboard one of Robby Gordon’s Hummers. We wish the man luck and everyone else taking part from our side of the world.
