Bikes : Barreda fall and lose 2nd place ... what a stupid boy

yes and I heard it happened in the last 15 kms. this is Dakar - mentality above everything.

[MartijnS]

For now de Rooij has won the trucks
But Karginov had a blocked road due to a crashed car in front of him. Now the question whether he helped the car back on his wheels or not in order to get some time compensation!

[A FONDO]

Okay, seems like they compensated some of Karginov's time and now he is a winner with 3 minutes.

Waiting for video from it - how narrow it was, how much Karginov helped? On the 3rd or 4th day, when De Rooy was blocked from a buggy, he pulled it for 20 seconds and resumed driving.

Anyway they both deserve the win for me.

[quote=vino_93]

@Mirek : do you know anything about new Tatra of Ardavichus ? It seems quite bad truck

It's a brand new truck from Bonver team (last year Kolomý drove with that team and finished 4th overall). It has a powerful Gyrtech Buggyra engine such as Kolomý, all Bonver Tatras and also both KM Liaz's. As far as I know his problem is a loooot of technical and other issues (at one of first legs he broke a fuel tank and now in most of the stages he runs far behind many slower trucks and cars which he has to overtake). I don't know how much testing Bonver did but generally most of Czech trucks went to this year's Dakar with very little testing. That's unfortunately very clear from the reports of their never-ending problems...

Rod Richardson: I don't know how others but our competitors mostly welcomed the tougher and longer route (it was claimed by the organizers in advance). Maybe now they regret I don't know...

thx you very much ! You are our truck master

Crazy picture of the Liaz [/quote:1bmyhltz]

I should add to Mirek, that car for Ardavichius was finished very close to the Dakar. Team has ready also older car for Ardavichius, but he has decided to start with new car despite lack of testing. So technical problems are not so big surprises.
