2012年达喀尔拉力赛将于1月1日至15日在阿根廷、智利和秘鲁展开。在两轮车组别的比赛中，虽然科马(Coma)和德普雷(Despres)各自坐拥三次胜利，这并不意味着他们俩中的一位能够在今年夺冠。已经具备登上领奖台、强有力的竞争者就包括雅马哈车队的罗德里格斯(Helder Rodrigues)和卡斯特乌(David Casteu)，阿普里亚车队的洛佩兹(Francisco Lopez)和KTM车队的乌尔沃斯特(Pal-Anders Ullevalseter)。葡萄牙选手贡萨尔维斯(Paulo Gonalves)，甚至2011年的最佳新手美国选手科迪(本田车队)也绝对有实力夺冠。同时，大家也要关注几位第一梯队的新手，包括巴西选手菲利普赞诺，世界冠军两连贯持有者奥伯特(Johnny Aubert)，以及四次Bold'Or冠军拉格里夫(Matt Lagrive)。
