Prologue - January 5th
🚩AlUla - 🏁 AlUla (27km)

A curtain raiser as long as this one pushes the rules to the absolute limit. 🚦
Instead of a sprint, it is a Dakar stage in concentrated form in which the competitors will slalom among rocks, on sand tracks and off-track sections… pic.twitter.com/Ioxnce1Z9y

Stage 1 - January 6th
🚩AlUla - 🏁 Al Henakiyah (SS: 405 km)

The tough, action-packed challenge of stage 1 sets the tone for the 2024 edition and throws the competitors in at the deep end! 🥵

Stage 2 - January 7th
🚩 Al Henakiyah - 🏁 Al Duwadimi (SS - 470km)

An XXL road section for an XXL special! 👊

After 30 km or so of dunes, the lion's share of this brand-new special takes place on fast stretches! 💨
The Dakar will be veering into the realm of endurance.… pic.twitter.com/AsdNxD8CqW

Stage 3 - January 8th
🚩Al Duwadimi - 🏁 Al Salamiya (SS - 440km)

No gentle start to Dakar 2024, on the agenda, an eclectic mix of stony sections, vast expanses of sand, and chains of dunes! 🔥#Dakar2024 #DakarInSaudi pic.twitter.com/ClRoAfWxkU

Stage 4 - January 9th
🚩 Al Salamiya - 🏁 Al-Hofuf (SS - 299km)

Yet another long, hard slog on the way to Al-Hofuf! 🌴

The terrain is a bit faster and easier, but watch out! It's also packed with navigation puzzles. Any blunder in this regard will definitely come with a hefty… pic.twitter.com/JgUhFNl5cd

Stage 5 - January 10th
🚩 Al-Hofuf - 🏁 Shubaytah (SS - 118km)

A deceptively easy stage! Two dangers lurking beneath the surface!
1️⃣ The length of the liaison and 2️⃣ the return to the sea of dunes of the Empty Quarter!
Here, each kilometre in a special hurts twice or thrice as… pic.twitter.com/Fopqlmmwe5

Stage 7 - January 14th
🚩 Riyadh - 🏁 Al Duwadimi (SS - 483 km)

A canyon maze with constant changes of direction, followed by an intense dune section. 🏄🏻‍♂️
🚦 A mishmash that throws competitors right back into the thick of it! #Dakar2024 #DakarInSaudi pic.twitter.com/Ffem0dwEsH

Stage 8 - January 15th
🚩 Al Duwadimi - 🏁 Ha'il (SS - 458km)

A day of stark contrasts, slightly easier than the previous stages. 🤏
But stay on high alert; here, the sand gives way to stones, creating very rugged terrain.
The mission: avoid punctures on the road to Ha'il. 🪨… pic.twitter.com/9KCkZNRgfj

Stage 9 - January 16th
🚩 Ha'il - 🏁 AlUla (SS - 417km)

🤯 A stage that will push the leading competitors to the brink mentally.
The tracks are more felt than seen, making navigation even trickier! Not so easy to find the right pace while racing on the rocky plateaus.… pic.twitter.com/nJHaQnRvye

Stage 10 - January 17th
🚩 AlUla - 🏁 AlUla (SS - 371km)

A loop stage around the monumental rocks of the AlUla region. 🔄
Think about the starting positions! This devilish obstacle course will give the savviest competitors plenty of opportunities to capitalize on their rivals'… pic.twitter.com/whPjquU3Dk

Stage 11 - January 18th
🚩 AlUla - 🏁 Yanbu (SS - 480km)

💪 The pièce de résistance of the second week! Stretching for almost 500 kilometres, the lion's share of the special takes place on barren, rugged terrain.
Will the stage upset the podium in all categories? 🫣#Dakar2024… pic.twitter.com/ejcmuX0Aai

Stage 12 - January 19th
🚩 Yanbu - 🏁 Yanbu (SS - 175km)

🔝 The last one! A 144-kilometre timed section is never a comfortable place to be for the person leading the race!
Devoid of major difficulties, the ultimate stage could still be decisive. Dakar 2023 taught us that much.… pic.twitter.com/0b799Sg3Es
