Riders in the course of the pack had two extra equally divided days of driving.The rider who mastered each segments greatest was Adrien Van Beveren.

Ricky Brabec

Ricky Brabec : “There was a lot of time in the dunes but I didn’t mind that as the challenge of going for many hours and kilometers made it a lot of fun. Camping with the boys was a blast, we had a really good time last night although we didn’t get much sleep. The stage was 100% dunes but it was really cool and I hope they do something like this again. Rocks and open deserts are a bit better for me and with the dunes I really pushed but I also played it safe towards the end as I didn’t want to open stage seven. I’m in a good place going into next week, so let’s see what happens in the next six days.”

Skyler Howes: “I’m gutted to have to exit the rally early. After a less than ideal start I was looking forward to the chrono stage and the second week to claw back the time that I lost in the first couple of days. The issue that took me out is nobody’s fault, not mine, mechanics or the team. When you’re pushing at the maximum level for this many days, luck has a big part to play and yesterday I drew the short stick. Sometimes this happens in racing and all we can do is learn from it. Now I’m looking forward to the year ahead and focusing on being better. Failure and adversity can be the best teacher, one I’m familiar with.”

Jacob Argubright

Jacob Argubright: “Been a long 3 days In the empty quarter! I had to start dead last on stage 5 because of not starting stage 4 which turned out to be a blessing because I was able to help my Duust Co teammate @konrad_dabrowski537 with some electrical problems on his bike and from there we limped it in till pretty much dark in so he could continue the race. After such a slow day I started last yet again with Konrad on stage 6 called the Chrono stage that took place over 2 days of pure dunes. I rode my ass off surfing dunes passing I think around 100 people, running out of gas twice on the first day and once today and still had my best stage finish of P14. Really stoked considering I don’t think I ride that well the dunes but I definitely felt great both days. Ready for a nice rest day and back at it for the second half!”
