Al Attiyah on his Dakar defence

Nasser Al Attiyah heads in to the 2012 Dakar as the reigning champion and pre-event favourite, but with lack of works entries from Volkswagen and Mitsubishi he knows this year's rally could be one of the closest in its history. Moreover the former works VW driver has switched machinery himself for this year's campaign and is set to drive a Hummer developed by Robbie Gordon's off-road team. He spoke to AUTOSPORT prior to the event, which begins in earnest on January 1 at Mar del Plata in the south of Argentina
