Dakar 2015 Stage 13 - Final

Posted On : 19-01-2015

It's the final. Ending the whole Dakar Rally was the victory of Marc Coma. 2 weeks, 13 stages, 1 death, many unlucky factors and happenings. Factory Red Bull rider, Marc Coma representing KTM took his fifth Dakar Rally win. Coma performance throughout the race was amazing. He did well in controlling and maintaining his pace. He was pretty consistent throughout. However he did met a problem like most of the competitor did, a badly worn out rear tyre at stage 2. All in all, his ride still did well, almost faultless. Gaining another level made him on a different and stronger league.

 

Although Coma did not start off well, but he ended off superb. He has been leading the overall standings since stage 8 after his biggest rival Joan Barreda drop with some technical issues. Maybe Barreda is down on luck, maybe coma is lucky but one thing for sure is that maintaining the first placing from stage 8 to stage 13 isn't luck. Coma definitely have the skills needed to get this title. Now let us take a look at the final result, for both stage 13 and overall standings.
