The Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge: Hero MotoSports Team Rally won the 33rd edition of the prestigious Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge on Saturday, registering the first triumph for the 7-year-old at a World Championship race. This follows their historic Dakar Rally podium finish in January 2024.

Rally GP class rider Aaron Marè won the race for Hero MotoSports, showcasing a phenomenal performance at the 6-day desert rally. Even though Aaron joined the team as a substitute for factory rider Sebastian Buhler (who is still recovering from his Dakar crash), the young South African who lives in Dubai, performed at his peak to win two Stages, lead the race for four straight days, and eventually finish on the winner podium.

Collecting several points from the round win, Hero MotoSports has catapulted to the top of the manufacturers’ leaderboard in the FIM World Rally-Raid Championship (W2RC) 2024 – this is also the first time an Indian manufacturer has reached this level on a global stage.
