Dakar Rally May Alter Saudi Route
The organizers of the Dakar Rally are seeking an alternative route for the race scheduled in January 2027 in Saudi Arabia, due to escalating hostilities between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis, and amid security concerns stemming from Houthi attacks targeting airports and oil refineries. The race was originally set to start from King Abdullah Economic City and include stages in the western part of the kingdom, but the current situation has led to the cancellation of the final round of the season in Saudi Arabia. The next edition is planned to take place between January 1 and 15, with a new route featuring fewer bivouac camps to avoid security risks, spanning a lengthy 5,320 kilometers.
