Dakar time sheets are wrong on their site as it only calculates to 24 hours. If you had a total time of 25 hours it would show as 1hr total.
If I calculate it right Maffei is just inside the top 20 of the bikes. |

Maffei was the big mover from 1st to 10th because he lost a few hours yesterday. Patronelli out front leading by over an hour. Machacek keeping pace in 3rd still a few hours off the front due to lost time a few days ago.
Impressed with DeClerck (5th), he is consistant and on the smallest capacity quad in the field. |

if he treats it like they normally get the the foot boards probably arent really up to it. Smitty managed to destroy a set in a week at Safari so two weeks might be too much...

No change at the top of the table after a difficult navigational stage. Last nights stage winner was the lone gunman  and that has shot him up the standings to 7th outright.

| Todays stage was shortened by 100km due to flooding. Tomorrows stage will now be the longest at 550+km and then they head back in to Buenos Aires for the finish. |

Last nights stage has smashed em........the longest stage had it all, moutains, sand and mud.......slippery gets in to everything mud. Only 6 quads have finished.
As of now only 14 of 56 cars and 63 of 94 bikes have crossed the line.

It doesn't look like Machaeck started the stage and is out.
