Hero MotoSports Team Rally geared up for its first race of the season

Spain Oct 4 (UNI) Hero MotoSports Team Rally, the rally racing team of Hero MotoCorp - manufacturer of motorcycles and scooters - is all set to commence a new season of competitive racing.
The full-strength, three rider Team of Joaquim Rodrigues, C S Santosh and Sebastian Buhler is geared up to participate in the first campaign of the season, the upcoming Rally Andalucia, slated to be held from October 6-10 near the town of Villamartin in Spain.
This is the first occasion when the entire Team has regrouped since the tragic demise of legendary rider Paulo Goncalves at Dakar 2020, followed by a protracted period of inactivity due to the Covid-19 induced restrictions.
The entire Team regrouped in Portugal recently and has been doing intense training to make a strong comeback into competitive rally racing. Rally Andalucia - the only confirmed Rally so far prior to the Dakar 2021 - will serve as the perfect platform to get the riders and crew back to collaboration
mode and into the mindset of racing.
Sebastian Buhler, an upcoming rookie, has been groomed by the Team since last season. With remarkable temperament and fast developing skills, he made an impression at the Pan Africa Rally 2019 and the Dakar 2020. Buhler is now all set to make his debut as the official team rider for Hero MotoSports at the Rally Andalucia.
The Rally Andalucia - covering approximately 1000 kilometers over the course of four days - will offer the participants a chance to test their vehicles, the new technologies, practice navigation and get used to the new Covid-19 regulations with Dakar 2021 in sight.
