Moto action during the Stage 3 of the Dakar 2025 on January 7, 2025 between Bisha and Al Henakiyah, Saudi Arabia
The stay in Bisha, which lasted almost a week and included scrutineering, came to a close when the wind stopped blowing! The Dakar has resumed its nomadic nature, heading northwest towards Al Henakiyah. The riders, drivers, and crews dropped down by about 500 metres in altitude and especially had to tackle a beginning to the stage that was very rocky, before picking up speed on sandy plateaus for approximately 200 kilometres.
The heavy rainfall from the day before gave way to sunny intervals which made the terrain more conducive to racing. It was even ideal for Lorenzo Santolino, who scored his first stage success on the Dakar behind the handlebars of his Sherco. Saood Variawa also opened his roll of honour at the tender age of 19 years old.
