The delay from race leader Al-Attiyah is 33 minutes
It was a nightmarish third stage for Carlos Sainz Sr. who, thanks to many technical problems (repairs and then also a double puncture), slipped to -33 minutes from the new race leader, namely Al-Attiyah. The father of Ferrarista Carlos Sainz has no intention of giving up.
“Now we’ll have to change our strategy and go on the attack, even if, that way, you hope to get a winning ticket. You don’t know what can happen. But we will definitely try,” his words reported by Mundodeportivo. It should be mentioned that the Spanish rider born in 1962 has won the Dakar on three occasions (2010, 2018 and 2020).
