TLC will compete as a two-car team in the Rally of Morocco 2026, which is to be held from Monday, September 28 to Saturday, October 3.
For Car #1, TLC has appointed experienced driver Christian Lavieille, who previously enjoyed success as a TLC driver. Serving as navigator will be Valentin Sarreaud, who has competed alongside Lavieille in the Dakar Rally since the 2023 edition.
For Car #2, TLC welcomes Saudi Arabian driver Yasir Seaidan, who has competed successfully across a wide range of rally raid categories. He will be partnered by navigator Jean-Michel Polato, a long-time TLC navigator with extensive rally experience.
At this year's Rally of Morocco, TLC will take on the challenge with two crews, each bringing a different set of experiences and strengths. By evaluating the vehicles under competitive conditions and further strengthening the team's structure, TLC aims to accelerate its preparations for the 2027 Dakar Rally.
Updates on TLC's activities during the Rally of Morocco 2026 will be shared regularly through TLC's official Instagram account. We welcome and appreciate your warm and ongoing support.
