Nairobi — Ben Muchemi has cautioned Africa Rally champion Conrad Rautenbach of Zimbabwe that it will be hard for him to win the KCB Safari Rally against the experienced local drivers.
There is also the element of the rains, which are here to stay, adding a new spec to the challenges that come with competing in the Safari Rally.
“These rains are going to make it harder,” said Muchemi.
“With these new cars many of these drivers have acquired, they will be forced to change or head back to the garage to make new settings.
“It will be slippery and skidding will be routine.”
With more than 80 drivers confirming participation, this weekend’s Safari Rally promises to provide the spills and thrills reminiscent of the gone memories of the ‘toughest rally on earth’ and the 10 foreigners who have thrown their hat in the ring will not pick the gongs on a silver platter.
“It will be war. Winning the Safari Rally has never been an easy target,” Muchemi added.
