Rallye du Maroc 2022: Rainbow closes instructive Rallye du Maroc with podium place

After last year's victory, the Rainbow Truck team finished the Rallye du Maroc again with a podium spot. Gerrit Zuurmond, Klaas Kwakkel and Tjeerd van Ballegooy successfully defended the third place on the last day.

Of all the participating trucks the Rainbow Truckteam team had the fewest problems during the six days. That again resulted in a nice podium spot, although Zuurmond had to fight for it on the last Thursday. "We drove really hard today, drove incredibly hard," said Zuurmond at the finish in Agadir. "That went nicely. We still had to do our best to stay ahead of our closest competitor and we did well. A nice third place."

Zuurmond looks back on a learning week. "We learned a lot here about what the material can and cannot take, in that respect it was also an impressive week. Above all, it was a very enjoyable week, a beautiful rally. We got a nice club and a nice result, what more could you want?"

The focus now turns to the Dakar Rally, in early January in Saudi Arabia. Before then, the MAN must be fully prepared and the Dakar pre-prologue is also on the program. "The truck does need to be properly prepared before shipping to Dakar. Together with the guys from the EBM team we are trying to get it really ready. Then, if all goes well, we will also be present at the pre-prologue."
