Monster Energy/Honda HRC Rally’s Adrien Van Beveren looked to have today’s Stage 5 of the 2025 Dakar Rally, Round 1 of the FIM World Rally-Raid Championship, won as he crossed the finish line. However, a speed miscalculation would cost AVB a 2:00 penalty from race officials, which erased his victory – but still earned him 2nd place in the stage, 00:47 back of KTM’s Luciano Benavides.
