Dakar 2022 - Stage 10 | WOMEN SHINE IN T3

WRRC 2022 | | >

Extended highlights of the day - Stage 10 Dakar - #W2RC

In the T1 World Championship, Sébastien Loeb is taking advantage of Al-Attiyah's somewhat cautious approach to bag one batch of 5 points after another. 5 points is also the difference in favour of the Frenchman, who has a total of 37, in the ranking. Przygoński claimed his first second-place finish in the Championship to pull level with Serradori, who only scored a single point. Lucio Álvarez expanded his gap to these two with an extra 2 points in his bag.
In the T3 competition, Quintero took his tenth stage win, but the spotlight was on the women thanks to Cristina Gutiérrez's second place among the W2RC entrants and Saudi Dania Akeel, who opened her account.
In the T4 championship, Lithuanian Rokas Baciuška landed the biggest W2RC haul of the day and is now neck and neck with Pole Aron Domżała in fifth place, with 19 points apiece. Michał Goczał benefited from his brother's troubles to snap up 3 points and pull closer to him. He is now second with 30 points, one fewer than Marek.
In the T5 competition, Macík outperformed Koolen and Vratný in the fight for championship points for the sixth day in a row.
Finally, in the motorbike category, Quintanilla and Barreda (Honda), Sunderland (GasGas) and Walkner (KTM) look set to get their hands on the first points of the 2022 season with two days to go. Four men, three brands —the game is on.
