There may not be a better way of bouncing back from a difficult day of rally racing than by winning the very next stage! That’s exactly what Daniel Sanders has done on the penultimate leg of the Rally Du Maroc. Picking up his pace throughout the incredibly technical special, Sanders delivered what is undoubtedly his best ride of the event so far and now lies third in the overall provisional classification.
With the fourth day of the Rallye Du Maroc serving up another technical stage with tricky navigation, Sanders kept his mistakes to an absolute minimum, focused on his roadbook, and when the stage win was on the cards, got on the gas to secure his victory! Now faced with being the first rider to start the final day of racing, the Aussie is up for the challenge and excited about the prospect of completing another round of the FIM Cross-Country Rallies World Championship with a strong overall finish.
The fifth and final stage offers no respite for any of the remaining racers with the scheduled 291-kilometre special set to guarantee another long day in the saddle. With Sanders now locked in a close battle for the final step on the overall podium with Ricky Brabec, we’re fully expecting this one to go down to the wire. (source: gasgas)
