Honda’s Ricky Brabec may have won the Daakr rally but after two long weeks of racing, British World Enduro Champion, Jane Daniels finished the 2024 Dakar in 48th place but was the Women’s winner and also the top British rider.

The 29-year-old from Wigan was competing in her first Dakar on the Fantic Racing XEF 450 Rally. During the event, she came to the aid of her team-mate Jeremy Miroir, where she towed him for 60km to finish the special stage and then for another 95km to get him to the bivouac – an act that led to Jane being awarded the DARE award for the ‘Dakar Spirit’.
