Emva kweelori zaseDakar, namhlanje ziimoto zaseDakar. Isiphakamiso sam kukubuyela kunyaka owawukude ka-1987, apho uninzi lwethu lwalungekazalwa. Ayilotyala lam, ndiyavuma. Ngo-1987 ndandisele ndinonyaka omnye ubudala. Wayesele ekwazi ukuhamba yedwa, ukugwinya iibhetri ze-AAA (kwenzeka kanye) kwaye athethe amagama anzima njenge "dada", "cheep", "gugu" kunye "nokwahlukana kokuzimela".
Injongo yolu hambo lwexesha? Ndwendwela imbali yePeugeot eDakar.
Kuncinci kuba lo nyaka wokugqibela (NDR: ngexesha lokupapashwa kweli nqaku) apho i-Peugeot ithatha inxaxheba kwi-Dakar njengeqela elisemthethweni - abanye bathi ukubuyela kwiiyure ze-24 zeLe Mans. Ngoko ke ngakumbi isizathu solu hambo lweminyaka engama-31. Mhlawumbi ixabisa imizuzu eli-10 yokufunda. Mhlawumbi...
1987: fika, ubone kwaye uphumelele
Peugeot akazange ncam izicwangciso ukubaleka Dakar ngo 1987. Kwenzeka nje. Njengoko uyazi, iQela B lachithwa ngo-1986-isihloko esele sixoxwe sithi. Ngokukhawuleza, uphawu lwesiFrentshi lwalune-Peugeot 205T16s ehleli "kwigaraji", engazi ukuba benzeni nabo.
Kwaba ngeli xesha uJean Todt, umongameli wangoku we-FIA, umseki kunye neminyaka emininzi intloko ye-Peugeot Talbot Sport, wakhumbula umgca kunye ne-205T16 kwi-Dakar. Umbono ogqwesileyo.
Xa kuthelekiswa kakubi, ukuqala kukaPeugeot eDakar kwakufana nokuzalwa kwam… bekungacwangciswanga. Kwezi ziganeko zibini, sinye kuphela esihambe kakuhle. Ngaba unokuthelekelela ukuba yayiyeyiphi?
U-Ari Vatanen, owayeyazi i-Peugeot 205T16 njengabanye abantu, wayeyinkokeli yeqela le-Peugeot Talbot Sport. I-Vatanen yayinoxanduva lokugqibela lokukhusela imibala yophawu lwesiFrentshi eDakar. Kwaye ngekhe iqale kakubi. Kwakhona ngexesha lentshayelelo (inqanaba "leembotyi", elisebenzela ukumisela umyalelo wokuqala), u-Ari Vatanen wayenengozi.
Njengomphumo wokungena koloyiso, i-Peugeot de Vatanen yathabatha inqanaba loku-1 leDakar kwindawo emnandi yama-274 iyonke.
Kodwa kwa-Peugeot, akukho mntu ujule itawuli phantsi—noMnu. Todt akazange amvumele. Ngaphandle komdlalo oncomekayo, iPeugeot Talbot Sport, eyenziwe ngabadlali abanamava ababesuka kwiWorld Rally Championship, yakhawuleza yangena kwisingqi sogqatso lwasentsomini lwaseAfrika.
Xa iDakar ingena eAfrika, uAri Vatanen wayesele eleqa iinkokeli zogqatso. Emva kobungqina obungaphezulu kwe-13 000 yeekhilomitha, ecaleni koLwandlekazi lweAtlantiki, yaba yiPeugeot 205T16 eyafika kwindawo yokuqala eDakar. Umsebenzi ufezekisiwe. Fika, flip kwaye uphumelele. Okanye ngesiLatini "veni, capoti, vici".
1988: Bamba eli sela!
Ngomnyaka wesibini ngokulandelelana, uPeugeot wangena eDakar ngempindezelo. I-Peugeot 405 T16 (i-evolution ye-205T16) yaqala ukuphumelela kwangoko eFransi kwaye ayizange ishiye phezulu kwitafile yeligi. De kwenzeke into engalindelekanga...
UJean Todt wayenayo yonke into ecwangcisiweyo, okanye ubuncinci, yonke into enokwenzeka ukucwangcisa kugqatso oluzele ziziganeko ezingalindelekanga. U-Ari Vatanen wayekhokela ngokukhululeka kwi-Dakar ukuya kwinqanaba le-13 (Bamako, Bali) xa imoto yakhe yabiwa ngobusuku. Umntu othile wayenombono okrelekrele wokuba imoto yomdyarho acinge ukuba angayibaleka. I-Peugeot, akunjalo? Akukho mntu uza kuyenza…
Akufuneki ukuthetha, akazange abaleke nayo, okanye isela (owalahla i-405 kwindawo yokulahla), okanye uAri Vatanen. Xa imoto yafunyanwa ngabasemagunyeni kwakusele kusemva kwexesha. U-Vatanen wayenqatshelwe ngenxa yokungabonakali ngexesha lomdlalo kwaye ukuphumelela kwamomotheka kwi-backpacker yakhe, uJuha Kankkunen, owayeqhuba ngokukhawuleza ukuncedisa i-Peugeot 205T16.
1989: Umcimbi wethamsanqa
Ngo-1989 kwavela iPeugeot eDakar inearmada enamandla ngakumbi, equka ezimbini. IPeugeot 405 T16 Rally Raid yavela ngakumbi. Ngaphezulu kwe-400 hp yamandla, ukukhawuleza ukusuka kwi-0-200 km / h kuphunyezwe ngaphezu kwe-10s.
Evilini, kwakukho amabali amabini omdlalo wemoto: iAri Vatanen engenakuthintelwa kunye… UJacky Ickx! Ifomula ephindwe kabini yehlabathi iphume phambili, iphumelele iiyure ezingama-24 zeLe Mans izihlandlo ezithandathu kwaye iphumelele iDakar ngo-1983.
Kuyacaca ukuba iMitsubishi, ekuphela kweqela elijongene nePeugeot, belicinga ngengxabano ukusuka kwelona nqanaba lisezantsi leqonga. Ngaphambili, u-Ari Vatanen kunye noJackie Ickx balwela uloyiso ngaphezu kwe-200 km/h. Kwaba kuyo yonke into.
Ibhalansi phakathi kwabaqhubi ababini be-Peugeot yayinkulu kangangokuba i-Dakar ka-1989 yajika yaba yi-sprint.
UJean Todt wenza impazamo enkulu: wabeka imiqhagi emibini kwihoko enye. Kwaye ngaphambi kokuba lo mlo wothando unikeze uloyiso kwisitya kwiMitsubishi "inkumba", umlawuli weqela wagqiba kwelokuba asombulule lo mbandela ngokujula ingqekembe emoyeni.
UVatanen waba nethamsanqa ngakumbi, wakhetha icala lasekunene lengqekembe waza waphumelela iDakar, nangona ejike kabini. Abakhweli babini bagqibe ugqatso ngaphantsi kwemizuzu emi-4 beshiyana.
1990: Ukuvalelisa kwiPeugeot
Ngo-1990, imbali iphinde yaziphinda kwakhona: I-Peugeot iphumelele iDakar kunye no-Ari Vatanen kulawulo. Ingxaki yokuhamba ngenqanawa kunye nokudibana kwangoko nomthi phantse yonakalisa yonke into, kodwa iPeugeot 405 T16 Grand Raid ikwazile ukulugqiba ugqatso.
Yayisisiphelo esizukileyo sexesha lolawulo olupheleleyo lwePeugeot. Ixesha elaqala njengoko laliphela: ngencasa yoloyiso.
Ikwangumdyarho wokugqibela wentsomi iPeugeot 405 T16 Grand Raid, imoto ephumelele ukhuphiswano ngalunye apho ibidlala khona. Nditsho nePikes Peak, kunye noAri Vatanen evilini - ngubani omnye! Olo loyiso kwi-Pikes Peak lubangele ukwenziwa kweyona filimu yerali ibalaseleyo.
2015: ukuthatha ubushushu
Emva kwesithuba se-25 iminyaka, i-Peugeot Sport yabuyela eDakar. Ihlabathi latsho ngehlombe. Kwimithwalo yayo, i-Peugeot Sport yayineminyaka engaphezu kwamashumi amabini yamava kukhuphiswano lwehlabathi lweFormula 1 (ayihambanga kakuhle), irali kunye nonyamezelo. Sekunjalo, yaba kukubuya okuntsonkothileyo.
NgePeugeot 405 T16 Rally Raid esebenza "njengeqhekeza lemyuziyam", bekuxhomekeke kumntu omtsha. Peugeot 2008 DKR ukukhusela imibala brand. Nangona kunjalo, imoto edonsa ngamavili amabini enikwe amandla yi-3.0 V6 injini ye-Diesel yayingekabi (okwangoku) ukuya kwimishini.
Abaqeqeshi beebhentshi bahleka ... "ukuya eDakar kwimoto eqhuba ngamavili angasemva? Sisidenge!”
Kwivili le-DKR ka-2008 kwakukho iqela lamaphupha: uStephane Peterhansel, uCarlos Sainz, uCyril Despres. Amagama obutofotofo ayesabetha kakhulu nangoku.
KuCarlos Sainz, iDakar ithathe nje iintsuku ezintlanu, ibekwe ecaleni kulandela ingozi enkulu. UStephane Peterhansel - aka "Mnu. Dakar”- igqibe kwindawo ephoxayo ye-11. Ngokuphathelele uCyril Despres - ophumeleleyo weDakar ngamavili amabini - akazange adlule indawo ye-34 ngenxa yeengxaki zoomatshini.
Yayingeyiyo, kwaphela, ukubuya okulindelweyo. Kodwa abantu sele betshilo: nabani na ohlekayo wokugqibela uhleka kakhulu. Okanye ngesiFrentshi “celui qui rit le dernier rit mieux” — Umguquleli kaGoogle uyamangalisa.
2016: isifundo sifundwe
Into ezelwe igoso, kade okanye ayikhe yolule. I-Peugeot ayizange ikholelwe le ngqungquthela eyaziwayo kwaye kwi-2016 igcine "ukholo" kwingcamango yokuqala ye-2008 DKR. I-Peugeot yayikholelwa ukuba ifomula yayichanekile, ukubulawa kwakulihlazo.
Yiyo loo nto i-Peugeot ifolile kwi-Dakar ka-2016 ngengqikelelo ehlaziyiweyo ka-2015.
AbakwaPeugeot baye bamamela izikhalazo zabaqhubi bayo kwaye baphucula iindawo ezimbi zemoto. I-3.0 litre V6 twin turbo injini yedizili ngoku ibinamandla apheleleyo okuhanjiswa kwe-revs ephantsi, nto leyo eyandise kakhulu ukutsala ukutsala.
ekujikeni, i-chassis ka-2016 yayisezantsi kwaye ibanzi, okwandisa uzinzo xa kuthelekiswa nomzekelo ka-2015. I-aerodynamics nayo yahlaziywa ngokupheleleyo kwaye i-bodywork entsha ivumele i-angles engcono yokuhlaselwa kwimiqobo. Ukumiswa akuzange kulityalwe, kwaye kuphinde kwahlaziywa kwiphepha elingenanto, ngenjongo yokusabalalisa kakuhle ubunzima phakathi kwee-axles ezimbini kunye nokwenza i-DKR ye-2008 ingabi nzima kakhulu ukuqhuba.
Ngokubhekiselele kubaqhubi, into enye yongezwa kwi-trio emangalisayo: I-9x World Rally Champion uSebastien Loeb. Umqhubi waseFransi odumileyo wangena eDakar «kuhlaselo» de waqonda ukuba ukuphumelela iDakar, kufuneka uqale ugqibe.
Ngenxa yengozi kaLoeb, uloyiso lwaphela luncuma “impungutye endala” uStephane Peterhansel, ophumelele iDakar ngomjikelo otofotofo wemizuzu engama-34. Konke oku emva kwesiqalo esilumkileyo sikaPeterhansel, ngokuchasene nokukhawuleza kukaLoeb. I-Peugeot yayibuyile kwaye inamandla!
2017: Ukuhamba entlango
Ngokuqinisekileyo i-2017 yayingelohambo lwasentlango. Ndiyaxoka, eneneni... AbakwaPeugeot bathathe inxaxheba ngokupheleleyo ngokubeka iimoto ezintathu kwiindawo ezintathu eziphezulu.
Ndikwazi nokubhala ukuba “luloyiso olubilayo”, kodwa akubanga njalo…okokuqala kwimbali yaseDakar, kwaPeugeot baxhobise iimoto zabo ngesifudumezi-moya.
Ngo-2017 igama lemoto likwatshintshile: ukusuka kwaPeugeot 2008 DKR ukuya IPeugeot 3008 DKR , ngokubhekiselele kwiSUV yohlobo. Ngokuqinisekileyo, le mizekelo mibini ifana noDkt Jorge Sampaio, owayenguMongameli weRiphabhliki, kunye noSara Sampaio, enye ye-Victoria Secret "iingelosi" - i-Pininfarina ilingana neengubo zangaphantsi zabasetyhini. Oko kukuthi, babelana ngegama kunye nenye into encinci.
Ukongezelela, ngenxa yeenguqu kulawulo lwe-Dakar kwi-2017, i-Peugeot iguqule injini yokunciphisa imiphumo eyingozi yokuthintelwa kokuthatha okuchaphazela iimoto ezimbini zokuqhuba. Ngaphandle kweenguqu ezilawulayo, i-Peugeot ichitha ubukhosi phezu kokhuphiswano yaqhubeka - nangona ilahleko yamandla kunye ne-air conditioning.
I-Dakar 2017 kwakhona i-re-edition enhle yedabi lobudlelwane beqela le-Peugeot Sport ngo-1989 - khumbula? - ngeli xesha kunye noPeterhansel kunye noLoeb njengabalinganiswa. Uloyiso lwaphela luncumela uPeterhansel. Kwaye ngeli xesha kwakungekho imiyalelo yeqela okanye "imali emoyeni" - ubuncinane kwinguqu esemthethweni yeziganeko.
2018: umjikelo wokugqibela guys
Njengoko benditshilo ekuqaleni kwenqaku, 2018 iya kuba Peugeot kunyaka wokugqibela e Dakar. Umjikelo wokugqibela "weqela lommangaliso" uPeterhansel, uLoeb, uSainz noCyril Despres.
I-Dakar 2018 ayiyi kuba lula njengohlelo njengelokugqibela. Imithetho yaqiniswa kwakhona kwaye inkululeko eyongezelelekileyo yobugcisa yanikwa iimoto ezihamba ngamavili onke ukuze zithobe umgangatho wokukhuphisana kwazo - oko kukuthi amandla amaninzi, ubunzima obuncinci kunye nokunqunyanyiswa kokuhamba ixesha elide. Naliphi na iphupha elimanzi lenjineli.
Ngokulandelayo, iimoto eziqhuba ngasemva zafumana ububanzi bendlela enkulu. I-Peugeot iphinde yabuyisela ukumiswa kwakhona kwaye u-Sesbastien Loeb sele exelele umshicileli ukuba i-Peugeot 3008 DKR 2018 entsha "izinzile kwaye kulula ukuyiqhuba". Kungekudala emva kokuba ndiyixelele le nto kumaphephandaba, yaphaphatheka! Ngokuzimisela...
Ngomhla emva kwengomso, i Dakar 2018 iqala. Kwaye njengoko kanye ndathi Mhlekazi. UJack Brabham "xa iflegi iwa, i-bullshit iyayeka!". Siza kubona ukuba ngubani ophumeleleyo kwaye ingaba iPeugeot iyakwazi na ukuphinda indlela yokuvalelisa ka-1990. Akuzukuba lula, kodwa ungabheji ngokuchasene namaFrentshi…
Ngaba i-Peugeot ikwazile ukuvalelisa kwi-Dakar ye-2018 ephumeleleyo?
