Dakar Rally
Next KTM stage win by Luciano Benavides
Argentinian Luciano Benavides has secured the next KTM stage win at the Dakar Rally in Saudi Arabia!
His teammate Daniel Sanders lost some time on the 8th stage with 483 kilometers from Al Duwadimi to Riyadh in seventh place, but still leads eleven minutes ahead of his first Honda pursuer Tosha Schareina. The Spaniard finished just over two minutes behind Benavides in third place on Monday. Four stages still to go.
"I made a few small mistakes here and there!"
"That was perhaps the hardest stage so far. I made a few small mistakes here and there, but I'm in a good position for Tuesday, so I'm happy," said race leader Sanders, who was almost seven minutes slower than Benavides.
The latter moved up to fourth place overall behind Adrien van Beveren (FRA/Honda), more than half an hour behind Sanders. KTM privateer Tobias Ebster rode to 14th place, the Tyrolean moved up to ninth overall. Pablo Quintanilla (Honda) retired after an accident with a shoulder injury.
In the cars, Henk Lategan extended his lead over his Toyota brand colleague Yazeed Al-Rajhi to over five minutes again with a clear victory on the day. Mattias Ekström in a Ford remains third overall, almost 29 minutes behind.
