Sainz retains overall lead
Stéphane Peterhansel (BMW) took advantage of a navigation mistake by Sainz and Al-Attiyah (both VW) to open up a gap and win the fifth stage of the Dakar Rally.
Carlos Sainz (E), 3rd place leg / 1st place overall "This leg was extremely tough. It was difficult in terms of navigation, physically strenuous and rough on the material too. At the beginning of the special stage the road book wasn't accurate enough at one particular location. Being the first car out we got lost there and Stéphane Peterhansel overtook us. About 100 kilometres later we were able to pass him again. In the last dune belt we lost some more time because we caught a motorcycle rider on a dune crest and reduced our speed a bit too much. Unfortunately, we got stuck there. But, on the whole, it was a good day for us."
