VW Desert storm

Volkswagen has drafted in two of the most experienced old hands in rally driving as part of its preparations for the Dakar Rally in January 2007.

None other than Carlos Sainz and Ari Vatanen will drive the two officially-entered Touaregs.

First tests are already under way in the Tunisian desert and the exalted VW drivers will then head for Abu Dhabi and the UAE Desert Challenge race as the final preparation for the Dakar event.
