Brief summary of Matthias Walkner at the Dakar break:

January 3 – Stage 1: Matthias Walkner starts off solidly in the rally and finishes a grueling first stage in third place. Good start to the rally …

January 4 – Stage 2: The crash: Matthias Walkner unfortunately had clutch problems in the 2nd stage of the rally and had to work on the motorcycle for more than two hours in the desert to be able to continue. Walkner finishes the stage very late. Of course, he is very disappointed and is clear that a place on the podium is gone …

January 5 – Stage 3: After Matthias Walkner was certain on his blog that he has nothing more to say in the general classification, he was able to see Stage 3 from a different perspective. Despite an average speed of about 125 km / h, the Austrian was able to “enjoy the scenery a bit …” When he caught up from 31st position in front, Walkner met old friends from the MX World Championship. .
Status after stage 3: 39th place

January 6 – Stage 4: Matthias Walkner talks about an extremely fast stage. Sadly, Matthias missed a lot early in the stage and left a long time behind. In short, a limit stage in terms of speed …

January 7 – Stage 5: Matthias Walkner writes on his blog that the day had started catastrophically because he missed several times in the first 65 kilometers. Again it was very difficult to navigate and it took 20-25 minutes to get to the second PC. Walkner: “It was really difficult for me until kilometer 50. For the last two hours I pushed what was possible with anger in my stomach, I took everything out again and drove for my life …”

January 8 – Stage 6 and half time of the rally: Matthias Walkner clings to Ross Branch, who started about 3 minutes after him and was able to catch up with the Austrian. Walkner then drives at incredible speed along with Ross. Matthias Walkner says on his blog: “Either I’m too old or I’m not used to speed anymore, but I think it was the fastest stage I’ve ever done …”

Matthias Walkner finished fifth on this stage. In the general classification, the Austrian was able to climb to 24th despite the two hours he lost on Day 2.
