A particularly full day’s programme, over 600 kilometres. No-one is likely to be left unmoved by this series of tracks, off-road sections, and dunes. This is where you find out just what “crossing the erg” means. And here too, the hierarchy can be thrown radically into disorder. After six days of racing, those who haven’t managed to avoid problems begin to feel the fatigue. Now, those moments of tiredness can cost you dear. Everybody’s going to be glad of the much-needed rest day.

I started the day with VERY bad weather....



Visibility was minimal ....



The weather was reaping havoc with my systems....



I barely landed because I lost all electrical and part of my hydraulics on the way ....





This was a close call, 230 points by PP but I am not complaining because I could have been out completely
