Initial real Dakar stage is over. Although one of the shortest stages was on the program, the words of the organizers, that it would be one of the more difficult stages, have come true. The hard stony surface brought numerous defects to many teams, including the North Bohemian trucks from the MKR Technology team. Despite these difficulties, Martin van den Brink with the Daniel Kozlovský, on-board technician from Roudnice, finished in the top ten, and two other colleagues just a bit further down the ranking.

Many firsts. This is one of the ways to summarize this year's 42nd edition of the world's most prestigious long-distance rally. Dakar took place for the first time in Saudi Arabia, the North Bohemian MKR Technology team built the first hybrid truck in the world and all the special trucks from the Židovice technology centre successfully reached the finish line for the first time. Mario Kress, the team leader, was therefore obviously satisfied after arriving in the Czech Republic.

It's Over! The 42nd edition of the world's most prestigious rally reached the finish line and the complete line-up of four North Bohemian Renaults from the MKR Technology team reached the finish as well. At the start line, there was a quartet of trucks, which can start celebrating in the finish at Qiddiya. Although this time they failed to get the desired stage podium, it was not their goal with new technology. So in the end the Czech-Dutch formation has a reason to celebrate. MRK Technology is the first in the world to build a hybrid truck in Dakar, but also made it to the finish line.

Due to safety reasons, the organizers prematurely terminated the 10th stage of the Dakar Rally. With a risk of a storm, the crews avoided the final dreaded thirty-kilometer stretch in the dunes and duly finished the marathon stage to the bivouac. However, the North Bohemian hybrid truck of Gert Huzink started the race perfectly and in the end was classified as 4th fastest truck.
