KTM Factory rider Marc Coma overcame snow, swollen rivers, dunes and lunar landscape desert to emerge triumphant in the South American Las Pampas Rally to now take firm hold of the world championship standings. It was Coma's third victory in four Las Pampas Rallies and follows up on his wins in the Sardinian and Tunisian Rallies for more valuable points in the World Cup. It was a well earned win after 4116 km of punishing riding and extreme conditions.
