00:00It's so nice to finally get in the car, right?
00:18In the driver's seat.
00:20There's a lot of pressure.
00:21There's a lot of weight on you.
00:22There's a lot of contenders for the top spots.
00:25You know who you're around and you have to respect that.
00:29Long, always.
00:30There are no short stages in this rally.
00:34I think this first week is the toughest and hardest Dakar ever in Saudi.
00:59This looks like a rear.
01:00Back.
01:01We were like 50 kilometers in.
01:04We had a major suspension part fail, kind of just out of nowhere.
01:11I would love to say I hit something and destroyed it, but I don't know, yeah, just kind of a
01:15freak thing.
01:16Something that never really happens on these cars, so my luck, I guess.
01:28It was really good to win the stage on my birthday.
01:36My plan is to win all this week, so I have to push and win.
01:48I had one race in week one, which was really smooth, and we reached our target.
01:52We reached top five at rest day P4.
01:54I was very happy, and we started week two with the goal to finish on the podium, but
01:58the day after rest day, I made a mistake and I crashed the car.
02:07Today is my first Dakar stage win for the Challenger, and we happen to finish third
02:10overall in the cars, which I think was just incredible.
02:23All my Dakars, the second week is better than the first week, but we drive down in the sand.
02:27I think, and I hope, we go a little bit up, and yeah, we hope, and we drive with wet fingers.
02:57We are third, so we want to keep the podium, and we want to finish on the podium, and we
03:27hope for the best for us.
03:47I didn't expect that my first Dakar would be that good.
03:51Dakar is about challenge, challenge your body, challenge for the car.
03:55I didn't expect in my best dreams that I would be second.
04:07Amazing, amazing day for us, win Dakar in the Challenger category, very competitive
04:14category.
04:15We are so, so happy.
04:16We train a lot to be here, to be competitive, and today win another Dakar for me is amazing.
04:46I don't know what it looks like, because I've never done a Dakar rally before.
05:16I don't know what it looks like, because I've never done a Dakar rally before.
05:47We're going to be going left up here, 200 meters, left is 200 meters, we're going to
05:58be going into the mountains, then we're going into the mountains.
