Sonora Rally 2025
What a week! Fast tracks, towering dunes, tricky navigation, and unforgettable moments. Sonora Rally delivered everything a true rally should, and the Kove 450 Rally handled it all like a beast.
From the blistering speeds of Stage 1 to the twisty pistes and cowboy cacti of Stage 2, every day brought something new. Stage 3 was a true test—one of the longest specials in Sonora history, mixing dunes, riverbeds, and a stunning beach run. I had my share of setbacks—a fuel hose issue, an unexpected meeting with a cholla cactus, and a speed penalty—but that’s rally racing!
Then came Stages 4 & 5— Dunes of the legendary Altar Desert. Long CAP sections, massive sand mountains, and a night under the stars on the marathon stage made it an experience to remember. The final stage was my favourite of the rally, massive dunes and tricky passages, all in all, an awesome day out there, and a great way to finally put a pin into the Sonora Rally.
🏆7th overall! Proud of this finish and grateful for the journey. Huge thanks to @freedomrallyracing and @kovemoto_usa for the support. Already looking forward to the next one!
