#2 - "The car is fucked, but at least we've got the hi-viz!"

Will be interesting if Despres & Coma finish close with the time rebate given.... Idea

...and didn't lose any time.

I was stuck there for 10 minutes as this thick mud made it almost impossible for me to get my bike back up off the ground. I was lucky that Paulo Gonçalves stopped to help me. That was really nice of Paulo to lend me a hand like that.

At the end of the stage, the race organisers decided to give me back the time I lost while I was stuck in the mud. They did this because after I got stuck they came to the area and changed the route of the stage to avoid anymore accidents in the same spot. After the stage the race organisers checked how long I had been stuck in the mud and then gave me back that time.

The Dakar always has a fishy smell about it.
