The 2025 Africa Eco Race is the 16th edition of the rally raid in North Africa. Departing from Monaco on 28 December 2025 it travelled through Morocco, Mauritania, and finished in Senegal after travelling by boat from France. ^[1]

Summary

Stage 7 was neutralized after the 241 km refuel point because the organization's plane had a technical fault and crashed into a fuel truck while it was refuelling Andrea Perfetti's bike. Perfetti was seriously injured, airlifted to hospital, and suffered a concussion. ^[2]

Stage 9 was cancelled due to a sandstorm from the night of Wednesday 8th through Thursday 9th. The starting location was moved 50 km from the original location, but it was decided it is still too high risk. ^[3] Race director Manfred Kroiss stated the safety concerns including the competitors not being able to be rested enough, and low visibility. The Historic and Raid categories continued with a shortened stage due to their lower speeds and lower risks. ^[4]

Stage 12 is a ceremonial special stage to celebrate reaching Lac Rose and, while timed, does not add any time to the general classification. ^[5]

Entry list

89 vehicles lined up at the start of the race event which include 78 motorcycles (1 quad) and 11 SSVs, cars, and trucks. These were accompanied by 9 cars and 1 truck in the historic category. ^[6]

69 vehicles finished the event, including 60 motorcycles, 4 cars, 3 SSVs, and 2 trucks. 8 historic vehicles finished the event.
