#142 Štefan Svitko – Rally GP

Talent isn’t everything, you need discipline. The Dakar teaches you that pain and fatigue are part of the game. You don’t recover like you did at twenty. I have the speed, but the Dakar is won with your head. This last Dakar was one of the toughest in recent years. In the dunes, you make one small mistake and you lose ten minutes. I don’t take unnecessary risks anymore. Dakar is about consistency.
The bike is more stable, faster, and more reliable. Sand is not our terrain. I need to work on that. If we stay consistent, the result will come. The goal remains to aim for a Top 10, or even better if reliability is perfect.
