Price rides into history with first Australian Dakar win Motor sport Craig Kerry Toby Price celebrates his win.
Toby Price has become the first Australian to win a category of the Dakar Rally. Price finished fourth on the 13th and final stage of the world's toughest off-road race to easily finish top of the overall bike standings. 
The 28-year-old from Singleton in the Hunter Valley started the day more than 37 minutes in front and finished the 180km stage to Rosario, Argentina, in 1:55:49 to extend his lead by more than two minutes and win the bikes section by 39:41.
"I don't know what to say, I don't know what to think. I'm in shock," Price said. "I never would've thought I could win this race in my second participation.
This is incredible for my family, my friends and my fans back in Australia.
"Winning in my second participation is awesome, but being the first Australian to win the Dakar is just insane. Finishing the rally is already a triumph.
Winning it is amazing."
French veteran Stephane Peterhansel won his sixth victory in the car category.
