Only the future knows who is going to defeat the Atacama Desert and go through Argentina, Bolivia and Chile to reach Valparaiso, Chile, first and enjoy the taste of victory. In the trucks category, the chances of several teams featuring experienced drivers are standing high. Moreover, there will be quite a few of them in TATRA trucks. Martin Kolomý of the TATRA Buggyra Racing team, who finished in fifth place in 2013, has very good chances. Artur Ardavichus of the Bonver Dakar Project, who came third in 2012, aims to be on the podium as well as the experienced Aleš Loprais of the InstaForex Loprais Team.
