"It's possible to run with 100 % ethanol"
The Dakar Classic revives some of the greatest hours of the event… And it also offers a glimpse into the future, with projects such as the one led by Jaap Bolk with Marcel van Wort. Inspired by his races in the Dutch Autocross championships, where he uses bio-ethanol, Jaap decided to “go green” in the world’s greatest rally. Their first participation, in 2023, was a successful one, making it all the way to the finish with a top-3 result in the H3 class. At the time, they ran 85% with ethanol… After another year of development, it’s time to go 100%!
J.B.: “This year, we go 100% CO2 neutral, running exclusively on ethanol, while it was 85% last year. We want to do things different and this is our way. I’m excited. Finishing the Dakar is the first goal, showing it’s possible to run with 100% ethanol. It works better than fuel because the turbo engine stays much cooler and is less damaged.
We’re gonna drive the same way as last year. We want to take it easy until the rest day, see how the other guys are doing. It’s a 14-day race and it’s not over until the last day. So if the car feels good halfway through the race and if we feel good as well, then we can push.”
