Isidre Esteve greets Box Repsol just a few hours after landing in Barcelona.<\/p>\n<p><strong>QUESTION: After being away from the Dakar race for eight years, you came back with the intention of finishing the race. Your position in the overall rankings and the competitive level you\u2019ve shown have surpassed all expectations. What do you owe this success to?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ANSWER:<\/strong>\u00a0Before we kicked off the Dakar Rally 2017, we wouldn\u2019t even have dreamed of finishing in this position. The truth is, generally speaking, things have gone well for us. We didn\u2019t encounter any serious problems, the team\u2019s mood has been fantastic, and from a physical point of view, we\u2019ve endured the race\u2019s difficulties well.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05060246\/Dakar17_E12_Isidre_Esteve_1.jpg\" alt=\"ISIDRE ESTEVE y TXEMA VILLALOBOS durante el Dakar 2017 Coche MITSUBISHI KH-7 RALLY TEAM\" itemprop=\"image\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Dakar is considered by most to be the toughest race in the world, mechanical performance also tends to be an important factor. How did the vehicle perform?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A:<\/strong>\u00a0The only problems we faced with the car have been due to the fact that it is young\u2014it hasn\u2019t taken part in many competitions and we had to fix some failures along the way. But to be honest they were technical problems that only took 15\u201320 minutes to repair.\u00a0<strong>The fact that we didn\u2019t have any bigger issues is thanks to the quality of the lubricants<\/strong>. All riders know that lubricants are key to avoiding serious mechanical breakdowns, and you have to trust in the lubricants that you use. Dakar is a tough race with considerable altitude and temperature changes. All of these factors have a negative impact on lubricant performance, and therefore increase the risk of mechanical failures.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05060247\/Dakar17_E1_Isidre_Esteve_3.jpg\" alt=\"ISIDRE ESTEVE y TXEMA VILLALOBOS durante el Dakar 2017 Coche MITSUBISHI KH-7 RALLY TEAM\" itemprop=\"image\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: You\u2019ve exceeded your initial expectations. What would you like to do better in next year\u2019s Rally?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A:<\/strong>\u00a0My aim is to continue being a competitive driver, and now that I\u2019ve solved the physical issues, to keep developing and improving the technical areas and the team infrastructure. The car was good, but we have to go one step further and make ourselves more competitive. We need to improve our infrastructure and have caravans to rest in after the stages like the other teams. Last but not least, we need to race in more international championships.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: So, are you already setting up next year\u2019s calendar?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A:<\/strong>\u00a0I am. We need to race and gain more experience in international championships. When we arrived at Dakar, we became aware that we lacked speed. As the days went by, my co-driver Txema Villalobos and I both improved in this aspect. The faster you go, the faster junctions, dangers, and direction changes come your way, and you have to be prepared. That\u2019s why we have to improve not just the calendar, but also our race pace and the car.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Which part of the Dakar 2017 was the most memorable for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A:<\/strong>\u00a0Every single moment. I think Marc Coma did a fantastic job setting up the different race stages. This edition has truly showcased the Dakar spirit. The balance between navigation and pace changes was perfect. There were some outstanding stages, but the ones I was most satisfied with took place in Bolivia and Argentina.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Coming back after eight years, what impression are you taking away with you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A:<\/strong>\u00a0Like in all Dakar Rallies, simply finishing the race is very positive. That was our main goal. Out of all the fond memories I have from this year\u2019s Rally, I\u2019d like to mention our time in Bolivia because of its people, the amazing fans, and the atmosphere. The way in which the people spilled out onto the streets with banners, cheering us on continuously, was unbelievable. Our toughest moment was in Volc\u00e1n (in northern Argentina). The heavy rains caused a mudslide that caused several deaths and injuries, and scores of people had to be evacuated. What I took away from this tragedy is the way in which the Dakar organisers poured all their efforts into helping everyone affected and cancelled the stage to be able to come to their aid.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bxrepsol.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/static\/2022\/08\/05060249\/Dakar17_E2_Isidre_Esteve_1.jpg\" alt=\"ISIDRE ESTEVE y TXEMA VILLALOBOS durante el Dakar 2017 Coche MITSUBISHI KH-7 RALLY TEAM\" itemprop=\"image\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Any anecdotes worth mentioning?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: It\u2019s not really an anecdote, but I would like to mention the Dakar spirit.\u00a0<strong>The same spirit that led my teammate, Cristina Guti\u00e9rrez, to stop when Txema and I got stuck in soft sand at 11 500 ft (3500 m) above sea level<\/strong>. Poor Txema was doing his best to get the car out of the sand all by himself when Cristina\u2019s car stopped next to ours. She didn\u2019t care about the time she\u2019d lose. Together with her co-driver, Pedro L\u00f3pez, they helped us get the car out. You\u2019d never see this in any other race.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What role has the smart cushion played in this competition? Has it worked as expected?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A:<\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s been absolutely crucial. At Dakar, riders spend 12 to 15 hours sat at the wheel, and those of us with spinal cord injuries run the risk of developing skin ulcers after so many hours of driving. The smart cushion removes the risk of this type of injuries, allowing the rider to concentrate on driving and competing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How does it work?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: The best thing about the smart cushion is that it stimulates the different contact areas independently. It has eight colour-coded areas with electrovalves and a type of software that provide constant movement; this stimulates blood circulation in the areas under pressure. The movement is hardly noticeable, but it changes the pressure on the glutes, almost like a therapeutic massage, which in turn avoids ulcers from forming in the exposed areas. I don\u2019t feel a thing, but my body and skin really notice the difference, and by keeping them happy I can turn my undivided attention to driving and competing.<\/p>\n<p>Isidre Esteve and his co-driver Txema Villalobos successfully completed the world\u2019s most demanding test, and they are quite eager to start preparing to come back next year. At\u00a0<strong>Box Repsol<\/strong>, we urge them to keep improving day after day and to fight for their dreams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ten years after suffering an accident in a rally in Almeria that resulted in a T7 spinal cord injury, Isidre Esteve can now say that he\u2019s back in competition.
