That is of course true but do You actually know that the accidents were faults of the competitors? It may be like that but also it may not. The traffic in these countries is often crazy and many accidents happen even without the race.Quote:

Why Caselli has 3,20 penalty?
It's been published that Al-Attiyah has invited Loeb to join the Qatar Red Bull team in 2014: "The place is open for him. If he wants for next year, it will be OK", said the Qatarian. He added that the goal of the team next year is to have five cars (one of them booster to help the four officials).
I don't believe that Sainz runs again a Dakar, even thought Nasser could build the strongest project for 2014. Despite the youth of the car, he's showing that it's possible to win a Dakar in a buggy. If he wants, it will be easy for Loeb moving from the said to the done.
