Seth Quintero claimed his third Ultimate class victory on the Dakar Rally. His team-mates Toby Price and Henk Lategan (Toyota Gazoo Racing W2RC), with the support of Yazeed Al Rajhi (Overdrive Racing), put the four Hilux vehicles with the new 2026 chassis in the top four places on the third day of racing. Jean-Marc Fortin's team, at the helm of the Hilux's development, scored its first victory today in AlUla.
“If you’re battling your team-mates for a win, then you’re having a good day. So today was a good day. I think we’re in a good way. Obviously, we’ve done a lot of strategizing and everything, so if I can have an ok day tomorrow and be in mid pack at the start of the marathon then I’ll be a happy camper”.
