Cars fight is becoming interesting, with Nasser Al Attiyah who's trying to regain the gap collected during the first day from Yazeed Al Rajhi.
Qatar “prince” won the stage again today, but Saudi had a delay of 1’23’’ only. More than nine minutes instead, the delay of Dutch Erik Van Loon, third in Baharija finish line.
Vladimir Vasilyev was performing a good trial and seemed to be going through today's victory, but the upper suspension arm breaking made him loose almost one hour for repairing. The fight at the top is among Mini All4Racing and Toyota Overdrive, as confirmed by Marek Dabrowski fourth place, that ended in front of Miroslav Zapletal and Yuriy Sazonov's two Hummer.
In the general ranking Al Rajhi still has more than seven minutes over Al Attiyah, but two stage are still missing before pilots can see Giza Pyramids, so nothing is taken for granted.
Third place in general ranking goes to Polish team with the ex motor bikers Marek Dabrowski and Jacek Czachor.
Among bikes, situation seems to clearly rough out in favor of Bolivian Juan Carlos Salvatierra that won today the third consecutive stage. Once again he was before Venezuelan Nicolas Cardona, just for one minute today.
Salvatierra can sleep soundly as he can count on an advantage of over half an hour on Cardona.
Third overall in bike/quad category, Polish Rafal Sonik, defending World Champion, does not seem to have any foes among quads, having his direct competitor, Stefano Dalla Valle a delay of five hour. Behind him Italians Domenico Cipollone and Stefano Turchi.
