Colo Colo will debut in the 2023 Dakar to be held in Saudi Arabia at the hands of Tomás de Gavardo, who wears the Cacique shield on his chest to carry out the most demanding test in nut sport.
A new edition of dakar rally it’s already running. This December 31, lovers of nut sports began to experience the two most important weeks of the year and, on this occasion, Colo Colo will be present in Saudi Arabia.
This, because the Colo Colo Social and Sports Club will have an ambassador in the motorcycle category. This is Tomás de Gavardo who will make his debut in the demanding competition in which his late father, Carlo, already stood out. The young national pilot is already in Saudi lands and has already brought out the Indian on his chest.
Colo Colo already knows the Dakar 2023
And when it is said that Tomás de Gavardo wears the Indian on his chest, it is not in a figurative sense. In the prologue stage of the competition, the motorcyclist was presented by the organization and, on his clothing, the Colo Colo shield could be seenan issue that fills all the Albos and the institution itself with pride.
It was Edmundo Valladares himself, former President of the Social Club, who highlighted the fact. “Colo Colo is much more than a soccer team. We are supporting various collective sports such as futsal, volleyball, basketball and now Tomás will be the first motorcyclist to wear our emblem for the Dakar Rally. We are very happy with this alliance, we know that he is a great fan of the club and we hope that he achieves his objectives in the competition that will be held in Saudi Arabia, leaving the name of our institution high”he pointed out a few days ago in conversation with La Tercera.
The first time of Tomás de Gavardo
The athlete will make his debut in the most demanding Rally of the year and, for that, he prepared himself excellently, although not without nerves. At the forward of the Dutch official KTM satellite team, the Bas World KTM Racing Team, the rider wants to once again leave his family name highjust like his father did in 2001 when he was in third position.
“It is super exciting that the name De Gavardo returns to the Dakar after twelve years. Since I was born, the word Dakar has been on my mind; My dad always went every Christmas to compete for the dream of winning the Dakar and I never thought that I was going to have to do the same”, mentioned a few weeks ago the colocolino who seeks to shine with his own lights.
