So, my favourite rally driver ever is leading Dakar.....
Curious to see if anything is going to happen with Sainz and Peterhansel.
Dutch quad rider Kees Koolen filed a complaint. Sainz hit him and continued. Peterhansel got there after the accident, but also didn't stop. Apparently they have to show up this afternoon to see whether they get a penalty. Also Al-Rajhi seems to be disqualified over this incident, but I can't find what he did or didn't do.
It’s getting big news!
Sainz denied hitting the quad and says Koolen lost control himself.
Tweet of Orlando Terranova saying Koolen (founder of booking.com) has shares in Toyota Overdrive and therefore Sainz shouldn’t be punished.
I guess there have to be onboards? To be continued.
10 minutes penalty for Sainz. So I guess he is guilty but than again, not really a serious penalty... :D
Peugeot is going to appeal the decision. So is Kees Koolen. He's really angry about the fact that Peugeot acts like nothing happened.
The fun thing is that Sainz is saying that he didn't hit Koolen and that neither of the vehicles has any signs of the impact.
Koolen has parts of his quad that are damaged a lot and he is going to let them research later, how much power is needed to get them bend like they are.
penalty removed for Sainz.
cant copy paste due to my computer problem,but find @PipeDakar at twitter and see a crazy video with a truck of Viazovich.
Jeez, it's not easy to do it in the truck! :)
