Chopard welcomes Ambassador Jacky Ickx in Riyadh

Chopard along with partner Attar United welcomed its Ambassador Jacky Ickx at the newly opened Chopard boutique in the Kingdom Center in Riyadh, where motorsport enthusiasts could meet one of the greatest drivers in motor-racing history, Ickx. Ickx has taken part in more than 100 Grands Prix and earned his first victory at the 1968 French Grand Prix, at the age of 23. He is famous for his performances in endurance races, especially in the Le Mans 24-Hour event, a competition that he has won 6 times – a record unequalled to date. Ickx also finished first in the Paris-Dakar car rally in 1983. In 2022, he returned to Saudi Arabia for the 3rd consecutive edition of the Dakar Rally that took place across the Saudi Arabian desert, January 1-14.
