Last week a delegation of Epsilon -Team travelled to Le Havre, in northern France where the Dakar convoy usually loads and unloads its vehicles.
On this occasion it was for a mere administrative procedure and to check the navigation systems in the vehicles (Iritrack,Sentinel, GPS and Tripy), because the “real” technical checks will take place in Buenos Aires on the 29th and 30th of December.
