00:00 It was a tough first week in the classic class of the Dakar, but so many good or bad memories
00:09 already.
00:10 I don't think about the future because it's Dakar.
00:14 So the stories will write the track and you never know.
00:19 So let's see in the evening and after I can say how was the day.
00:26 Really hard conditions for these vintage cars and the idea was to make things even harder
00:32 with more sand, more dunes.
00:35 It's going to be a tough day.
01:01 These last two days have been the most physical of the rally and that's really the Dakar
01:14 spirit.
01:15 The soul of the Dakar.
01:18 We really feel it.
01:31 We were going well.
01:43 We were 800 meters away from the end of the special and Michel told me "we've punctured
01:48 at the back" and I said "no, we've lost the wheel" and we saw it overtake us.
01:53 We're going to exit the special to find a local who can take us to assistance in Riyadh
02:00 so that we can repair during the rest day.
02:03 But it's a good opportunity to spend the night in the desert.
02:12 And back in the lead after the marathon stage is Carlos Santa Olalia in his Toyota Land
02:19 Cruiser.
02:20 The Spaniard increases his advantage over Andre Klimschi.
02:25 Looking good with a week to go.
02:27 See you next week.
02:36 Bye.
