After seven of the 14 legs of the 2010 Dakar Rally, the usual suspects have found their way to the fore once more.

In the bikes, where restrictors have been added to the inlets of machinery larger than 450cc machinery, KTM’s 690s have nevertheless dominated almost as much usual, holding first and six of the top 10 places, with two-time winner Cyril Depres an hour and 20 minutes clear of a close battle for second.  Read More
