Description
Produced and published by ERG Media, the book chronicles the race’s evolution from its renegade 1979 debut to the high-technology era of 1991, the final year of the original route, through rare photographs and documents sourced by the ERG team from DPPI, the preeminent Paris-based motorsport archive.
This is the race that had no business existing. Humble city cars and purpose-built prototypes. Factory giants and one-man expeditions. All of them pointed south from Paris, toward the Sahara, toward 10,000 kilometres of dune and rock and mechanical attrition, and the small matter of getting there alive.
Explore over 300 original photographs, period advertisements, historical documents, and magazine cuttings. Study the machines that made it and the ones that didn’t. Trace the legendary landscapes of the world’s largest desert across more than three decades of competition. And feel the texture of an era in motorsport that no longer exists, and never will again.
At 368 pages and 3.5 kilograms, Dakarchives is a large-format hardcover bound volume housed in an acrylic slipcase designed to reference the racing liveries of the era.
