e and sole international authority empowered to control international motorcycling events organised under its jurisdiction throughout the world and as such acts as the supreme court for the settlement of disputes which may arise from the organisation of such activities, save those cases that may be submitted to the Court for Arbitration for Sports in Lausanne, Switzerland.

🌍🏍️ FROM SENEGAL TO THE WORLD RALLY-RAID STAGE

Senegal's Alexis Varagne recently completed the demanding Desafío Ruta 40 in Argentina, the second round of the FIM World Rally-Raid Championship.

Competing against some of the world's best rally-raid riders, Alexis tackled over 500 km on the final stage alone, navigating high-altitude mountain passes, vast dune fields and challenging canyon terrain. Despite encountering mechanical issues during the rally, he remained focused and completed the event, proudly carrying the colours of Senegal on the international stage. 🇸🇳

Reflecting on the rally, Alexis highlighted the valuable experience gained and is already looking ahead to the next round of the championship, the Rally of Morocco. 🇲🇦

Congratulations to Alexis on his determination and commitment. FIM Africa wishes him every success for the remainder of the season.
