    He said that during the stage they entered a dry riverbed. All of a sudden, in 2-3 minutes, lots of water started coming down. They couldn't do nothing at all, they just got out of the car and went to a higher place and waited there. After that, a truck from the organization came and pulled them all the way to the bivouac, arriving there on early morning.

    The team rebuilt the whole car, leaving it ready for the following stages.

    Serious mechanical problems for truck leader de Rooy. The top is already in finish but he has not yet reached WP7! On WP6 he was loosing 1:17.

    Lot of change in moto too ...
    First Casteu had a mechanical problem -petrol tank- and then he falled, triying to pass a driver.
    We can notice to two falls for Pain. In the second he is suspected to break or his petrol tank or his oilpan. Lopez is falled too, as Barreda. But Barreda is doing a nice stage, even if it's Despres who is doing an incredible stage.

    In auto, lot of km to do. But Al Attiyah is losing 7' on Peterhansel, his Buggy is not good on its ground. De Villiers is leading the stage ahead of Roma, Peterhansel and ... Sousa ! Nice perf for the Great Wall. But undoubtedly it is, today, a stage for the 4x4 and not the buggy.

    Yes, no one knows if something happened to them or if it's just a problem on the website. This year, Mitsubishi Brasil team is doing a good 'coverage' through Facebook, and so far no news about problems was posted. Let's wait and see.
