According to the Holowczyc's interview at the end of stage five, the majority of their delay on that day was caused by burring their Mini in sand during an attempt to overtake Mr. Scumbag. Unfortunately, #309 lost an hour there.Quote:

Eric Palante, a belgian rider, is dead :( :( :(
He was one of the most experimented rider, it was his 11th participation.
The circumstances are still unknown... he was find this morning when the truck came to find crews missing. He didn't use his alert phone, and that is quite strange that he didn't do this, or at least someone who could passed close to him.
RIP :(

Good that Kolomư continues (when You mention him) but he lost 8+1 hours yesterday, the crew had zero sleep and today broke a wheel. Only Loprais left from our truckers in top ten. Hardly a chance for podium but You never know. It's still a long and rough way to go.
Sad thing with the Belgian rider as well with the two journalists who died yesterday in a car accident but it's Dakar. Things like that happen...
He's just half an hour behind Nikolaev (currently third), so there's no reason to loose all the hope. Yet ;)Quote:

Cars: 1. Roma 22h11' … 10. Malysz +2h43'
Trucks: 1. De Rooy 23h14' … 10. Shibalov +2h36'
On the other hand, in my opinion, separation of quads from the bike category was a mistake, as least from the sporting point of view. The competition is rather bleak compared to the other categories. Especially, that quads take air time away from T2s and T3s, which are not mentioned at all, and they used to be covered, if I recall correctly.
In the meantime, the current leader of T2, Mitsuhashi (who else?!), is 22nd overall, 6h15' behind Roma and the leader of T3, Coronel, is 44th, +12h19'.
Also, have you noticed that T3s don't carry "visibility flags" any more?
