The defending champion of the motorcycle category could not have asked for a better start to the rally.

"I'm happy to start like this, but it's just 30 km, so it doesn't mean so much right now. It's just day one of a long race. Of course I pushed hard, it's a race, huh? At any rate, I won the Dakar and I'm back here with a win, it's always good."
