Sunday begins one of the most important races of motorsport: Dakar 2020. It has been organized for many years in South America, but this year in Saudi Arabia you will find out what the best motorcycles, cars and trucks are in the world. Drivers have a long journey through January 17, but many of the places and cities that will travel have become known for reasons that go beyond the race.
Ignacio Robles, a well-known firefighter who refused to participate in a cargo of arms in the port of Bilbao, has analyzed these points of the journey and has denounced through social networks the relationship between the "terrorist state" Saudi Arabia and the Spanish state. Here's the thread he's spread through Twitter:

One of the points he has analyzed is the city of Jeddah. Robles recalled that 12,000 tonnes of weapons were sent from Bilbao to that port of Saudi Arabia to, among other things, militarily attack Yemen. Other points in the motoring race are related to the arms industry and the Spanish State. Robles has criticised the "fascist" policy of Saudi Arabia.
