Dakar - Daily results for cars

[ANDREW]

not been able to see it 

[LePaj]

just been keeping up to date on line (at work)  at breaks of course

[TinyTim]

"a potentially pivotal stage for both cars and bikes. Mitsubishi will be laughing all the way to the bivouac after VW lost two race leaders in as many days. Sainz and De Villiers out of contention - Peterhansel and Alphand in control."
