Lorenzo Santolino (Spain), Johnny Aubert (France) and Harith Noah (India), who will be making his rally debut, are the other members of the TVS squad. Indian rider KP Aravind is not a part of the set-up as he is suffering from a leg injury. The 42nd edition of the annual international competition will be held in the dunes of Saudi Arabia.


The rally will commence in Jeddah, pass through Riyadh and culminate in Al Qiddiya. TVS, which came up with good performances in international events such as Merzouga Rally, Desert Storm and Baja Aragon last year, will strive to continue its streak, at the Dakar Rally 2020.
