Aerpace racer Sanjay Takale suits up for his Dakar 2.0 mission

Pune, December 24, 2025: If at all there was a prize for exuberance and simplicity put together, Aerpace racer Sanjay Takale will win hands down. Put him in rugged and punishing terrain, Takale, who also wears the hat of the director of Aerpace, is ever ready to leave the cozy confines of his tastefully built home in Manjri and hit the off-road track, wherever it may be. He has done everything in the world of car rallying: from Asia Pacific rally championship, Asia cross-country rally to the World rally championship on the super-fast gravel terrain of Jyväskylä in Finland. Only goal remaining in his bucket list was the most challenging—Dakar Rally. And, he realized it in January 2025, but come 2026, Takale has packed everything that he would require in the land of Mecca over 14 days from January 3.

सरत्या वर्षाच्या प्रारंभी डकार रॅली पूर्ण केलेला पहिला भारतीय ठरलेला पुण्याचा आंतरराष्ट्रीय रॅली ड्रायव्हर नववर्षात हे आव्हान कारकिर्दीत दुसऱ्यांदा पेलण्यासाठी सज्ज झाला आहे. जगातील सर्वाधिक खडतर आणि प्रदिर्घ रॅली यंदाही पूर्ण करण्याचे उद्दीष्ट त्याने ठेवले आहे.

सौदी अरेबियात ३ ते १६ जानेवारी दरम्यान डकार रॅली होईल. यात एकूण १३ फेऱ्या असतील. ंयेथील पत्रकार परिषदेत संजयने माहिती दिली. एअरपेस इंडस्ट्रीज लिमिटेडचे संचालक प्रकाश गौर, पुणे ऑटोमोटीव्ह रेसिंग असोसिएशनचे (पारा) सदस्य अनिरुद्ध देशपांडे, श्रीकांत आपटे यावेळी उपस्थित होते.

डकारमधील पदार्पणानंतर आलेले अनुभव, देशातील अनेक ठिकाणी विविध कार्यक्रमांना प्रमुख पाहुणा म्हणून उपस्थित राहताना रॅलीप्रेमींनी केलेली प्रशंसा, त्याचवेळी वर्षभर केलेली तयारी, तंदुरुस्तीचे प्रयत्न अशा विविध मुद्द्यांवर संजयने भाष्य केले

Speaking to the reporter, Mr. Sanjay Takale said that, The Aerpace racer is ready for what he prefers to call Dakar 2.0, a 7,999-kilometre rally through the challenging Saudi Arabian desert, which is unlike any other past settings. Despites being desert, the day in Saudi Arabia is as hot as an oven, but at night weather chills down like any winter day in Europe. Mr. Prakash Gaur, Director of Aerpace Industries Ltd, Mr. Aniruddha Deshpande, Mr. Shrikant Apte were present during the press conference.
