Women’s Day Special: Laia Sanz, Dakar 2019

Laia Sanz is a Thirty year old rider from Spain. 2019 Dakar was her Ninth Dakar Rally. She participated in Dakar this year after recovering from Q Fever and thus she couldn’t train as hard as she would sans the Q Fever. This year she tested her limits and pushed herself back into racing. She said in a statement:

“The goal, normally will be to be among the top 15. But today I am in the unknown, I don’t know what to expect when it comes to sensations. It would be better than I expect, but I want to be very careful this year and ride without a particular objective. All I want is to start the rally in good health.”
