Rally legend and Dakar champion Carlos Sainz is always up for a good challenge, especially if the daring contender happens to be his own son, F1 driver Carlos Sainz Jr.

In this great video and battle of the generations, the famous racing pair square off on a dirt track in offroad karts.

One would believe the specific environment and machinery would favour the elder Sainz, but power slides and drifting are also in Junior's DNA.

How did things go down? Check out the video.
