“Every muscle in my body and every part of my brain has been tested by these challenges this week,” said Pablo Burattini, who will represent Argentina in the Land Rover G4 Challenge. “They could not have come up with more difficult and different ways to test us. It has been fantastic.”

In addition to driving, the competitors were put through a variety of hellish individual and physical tasks, designed to test strength, initiative, endurance and lateral thinking. The tasks included rafting a Land Rover across an icy lake, spinning a 200 kg log triangle about its axis, mountain biking at breakneck speed through slippery forests and zip-wiring off the castle battlements. Lastly there was a head-to-head final over a series of obstacles.
