Rest day in Riyadh: After the ups and downs of the first week of the 2023 @DakarRally, we are in the Saudi Arabian capital for the rest day. No stage today, but a lot of work as we prepare our two Audi RS Q e-tron* cars – @carlossainzoficial and @lucas74cruz (#207), and @mattiasekstromracing and @emilbergkvist (#211) – for the second half of the event. Everything gets going again tomorrow as we head to Haradh during the ninth stage. #FutureIsAnAttitude #AudiDakar #Dakar2023 #RSQetron -------------------- *Audi RS Q e-tron, far left in tent: This vehicle shown here is the Rally Dakar vehicle that is not available as a production model.
