00:00Hello rally fans and welcome to the Dakar Summer Party.

00:28After the rain, wind and cold, we've got sun, sand and well actually none of the other one

00:32but the boys are in the mood for dancing.

00:36Finally warmer weather, it's nice, almost holidays.

00:41All smiles in the empty quarter, even the prospect of a 519k liaison couldn't dampen

00:46spirits.

00:48Hot temperature, we were missing it.

00:54Daniel Sanders was bullish ahead of stage 10 thanks to a 14.45 buffer at the head of

00:58the rally.

01:01The guys have the pressure to push up, to try and make those big commitments and risks

01:07to try and get that gap closed but now coming in the last couple of days it's hard to close

01:12that especially in the dunes and now I've got control of where I want to start and finish

01:16and those guys are fighting for 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th at the moment so it's a good place

01:20to be.

01:22Luciano Benavida is opening for the 2nd day running but wasn't feeling well at the start.

01:32It was a hard day in the dunes, I was opening, I couldn't do much because the guys behind

01:37me were braking and stopping like you can see back there behind me.

01:42American Idol Ricky Brabeck hasn't had all yeses this year but he's 5th overall with

01:46a good starting position tomorrow.

01:51It's been difficult Dakar, there's been a lot of games going on so I feel like it's

01:56our time to play a little bit of games and today was the day for it.

02:00Games to play you say Ricky?

02:01Was Nacho Cornejo playing?

02:03After dropping 11.5 minutes on the winner he'll set off way back in 23rd.

02:07It could get a bit easier to find a good starting position for tomorrow.

02:14Ok so Nacho was involved but what about you Skyler?

02:17Hows came in 6th and will be a bit nearer the front when the dunes rise up again in

02:21the morning?

02:23Tomorrow's a long stage, over 300km of dunes and so that means if you open the stage you're

02:29pretty much guaranteed to lose a bit of time so on a short stage like this guys are going

02:35to be playing games which means that they're going to go slow on purpose so they don't

02:38have to open the stage tomorrow.

02:40Oh that's the game, got it, thanks Skyler.

02:43But wait, who won?

02:44Well the real winner today from Rally 2, Michael Doherty, he has the number 22 and it's 22

02:49years since our last winner from South Africa.

02:54Yeah I enjoyed it, enjoyed being back in the dunes, that's kind of what I've been waiting

02:58for all Dakar, I was just trying to make my best time today and at least try and get something

03:06good out of this Dakar, you know, like a stage win.

03:09Original Baimotul is still led by Emmanuel Jeannes but Benji Melot took the day and is

03:13now just 5.43 down, watch this space.

03:18I could stay with Stefan Zvitko and Michael Doherty for quite a few kilometres and luckily

03:24I got some time back on Emmanuel Jeannes so I'm quite happy.

03:29Spare a thought for Sherco's Lorenzo Santolino, the finish was especially tough for him, pushing

03:34his bike to the line in all his gear and believe me, it is hot in the desert today.

03:41No changes in the general standings and guys have said they don't think anything can change

03:45over the final three specials, but we both know it can.

03:48Sanders in control, two Hondas and two KTMs in the top four and two rally, two riders,

03:53Canet and Ebster in the top ten.

03:56There's still a couple of stages to go.

04:03We still have a big job to do and we still have a lot of kilometres to go.

04:08We have three days left and yeah, we'll see how we can make the strategy.

04:14Our strategy has worked well and that's the plan from the start.

04:20It's nice to be in the battle, in the top three.

04:23We come back again very strong, to third place, only 40 seconds.

04:28I think we have an idea of what the pace is like.

04:33As long as we are in it, we will give it our very best to fight for it.

04:39We're not way off, there's maybe a chance.

04:42I hope everything's going well and to win Dakar.

04:45Never will give up, I will do my best, you know.

04:48I won't be rude either, but they will have to fight for it.

04:52An absolutely huge distance to cover today, 640km into the empty quarter, of which 120 was timed.

04:58Opening the road after winning yesterday, Nasser Al-Attiyah.

05:01He had 25 minutes to make up on Yazeed Al-Rajhi.

05:05He flew past Guillaume de Méviès, who was stuck on the crest of a dune,

05:08and ended second to last.

05:12I like the sand.

05:13I think I'll learn a bit more, but I'm starting to feel comfortable.

05:18Mathieu Serradori's best Dakar result is seventh, three years ago,

05:22but he and Loic Minaudier are sixth overall and were sixth today too.

05:26Mitch Guthrie's Ford Raptor took their sponsors' advertising a little bit too literally.

05:32Red Bull did give them wings, but not in a good way.

05:35Sixteenth today, they held on to fifth overall.

05:44POV, Seth Quintero.

05:49Nasser Al-Attiyah and co-driver Edouard Boulanger had big, big problems today,

05:54in navigation and, I suspect, tension in the car.

05:58It seems that you lost a bit of time.

06:00I don't know. I asked Edouard.

06:03Really disappointed, you know, but what we can do.

06:07Is it the most disappointing day of the rally?

06:10Yes, all my life.

06:12And it's all changed at the top again.

06:14Henk Lattegen dethroned yesterday, but retook the rally lead this afternoon.

06:17He found the pace difficult, but eleventh was good enough for the San-African.

06:22Not too bad. I hope we didn't go too fast,

06:25because we don't want to be close to the front tomorrow.

06:28Don't worry, Henk, you judged it just right.

06:30There'll be plenty in front of you in the morning,

06:32but Yazeed Al-Raji will be behind.

06:35For me, not easy to open the road.

06:37Sure, the guys behind can go faster,

06:39but I think we do a great job, me and Timo, that's most important.

06:42After Dacia yesterday, more Dakar history today.

06:45Ford M-Sport with a first win.

06:472014 champ Nani Roma brought it,

06:49and with Ekstrom in contention overall,

06:51this could be a very good year.

06:53I really enjoyed today.

06:55Even if there is some stress,

06:57with the dunes cutting in the sand when it's at the top.

07:00We don't see much, but hey, thank you.

07:03Congratulations.

07:04You're OK?

07:05Yeah, yeah, we're OK.

07:06We're kidding.

07:08Great.

07:09Yeah, and that's it.

07:10Vamos!

07:12Right, let's assess what all that means then.

07:14Yazeed took the lead yesterday,

07:15surrendered it today.

07:16Henk switched with him both days.

07:18Ekstrom and Aletea could win,

07:20but who will win is anyone's guess.

07:31The trial.

07:37Oh, shit.

07:41The wheel is broken, isn't it?

07:42Do you see the wheel on the right?

07:46Yeah, it looks good.

07:49It looks good, doesn't it, when you're driving?

07:51No, no, there's a problem.

07:54We have to stop and see.

07:56It looks right, doesn't it?

07:58It looks right, yeah.

08:01It looks right.

08:02In the corner, I'll see if it's right.

08:05It looks right, yeah.

08:06I don't see anything.

08:07It does that, but yeah.

08:09There's a problem.

08:10I think I twisted the steering wheel.

08:12Can you drive?

08:13Yeah, I can drive,

08:14but it's pulling to the right.

08:15Do you think we should stop and look?

08:17I'm not going through.

08:19It's too hard.

08:20There's no more steering assist.

08:27Big dunes often mean big problems,

08:29and these rescue operations aren't an exact science.

08:32Whoopsie!

08:34Mitchell van den Brink is clinging on to second place overall

08:37with everything he's got.

08:38He was happy to finish behind Alishlop Price today.

08:42We're following Le Bret all the time

08:44because we want not to open tomorrow,

08:47so we leave a gap between and we finish second.

08:50So, yeah, it was our plan, so we're happy.

08:54They're separated by just four minutes,

08:56miles behind Martin Matic.

09:00And if you want to be a record breaker,

09:02if you want to be the best,

09:03if you want to beat the rest,

09:04dedication's what you need,

09:05and Francisco Chaleco Lopez has been competing in the Dakar

09:08since 2007.

09:09How's that?

09:10Hegger is untouchable.

09:13And if we haven't already had enough breakthroughs today,

09:16a monumental leap in the challenges.

09:18Dania Aqeel, the first Saudi woman to win a Dakar stage,

09:21glass ceiling smashed.

09:22Ra-e-a, Dania.

09:24Brilliant. Bravo.

09:31Winston Churchill said when he became Prime Minister of the UK

09:34that all he had to offer was blood, sweat and tears.

09:38And these guys and girls are offering all that and more.

09:43He also said this is not the end,

09:45it's not even the beginning of the end,

09:47but it might be the end of the beginning.

09:50The empty quarter signifies that.

09:52See you tomorrow, rally fans.

10:08Thank you, Audrey.
