A limited partnership opportunity with Sikkens Motorsport and the DK project.

Why this project is different

Sikkens DK is an independent motorsport project rooted in heritage engineering and real endurance culture. Inspired by the legendary Porsche 959, this is not a factory program and not a corporate campaign. It is a handcrafted, engineering-driven Dakar entry designed to tell a story of ambition, resilience and craftsmanship — one that brands can authentically become part of.

Dakar scale & global credibility

The Dakar Rally is the world’s most extreme motorsport endurance event, spanning multiple countries, thousands of kilometers and weeks of continuous global media exposure. With millions of viewers worldwide, Dakar offers brands long-form storytelling, not just momentary visibility — a narrative that unfolds day by day across digital, broadcast and on-the-ground experiences.
