Follow the course of the race on the portal tv3.lt. On Tuesday, the runners will have to cover 685 kilometers, of which 457 will be speed sections. Lithuania has already lost a driver after two stages: Vaidotas Žala withdrew from the fight due to a car breakdown.
At the beginning of the stage, Benediktas Vanagas stood out in the top ten. At the same time, the Lithuanian who moved up to ninth position lost time in the final points. Slightly down, Benedict was able to finish 15th. The Lithuanian, who spent almost 4 hours on the track, beat the winner of the first stage Carlos Sainz.
For the Spanish, this stage is a nightmare: in about 150 kilometers the motorcyclist got lost and lost up to half an hour from the leaders. The trio of winners of the third stage car class: N. Al-Attiyah, H. Lategan (+00: 02: 27), S. Peterhansel (+00: 04: 05).
Other Lithuanians demonstrated the pace shown so far: Edvinas Juškauskas finished 34th, A. Juknevičius 37th.
The motorcyclist Arūnas Gelažninkas was the first to reach the finish line. As the rider who has shown stability in previous days, this time he has fallen some positions. The compatriot traveled 457 kilometers in more than 4 hours and finished 40th. Australian Toby Price won in the motorcycle category. He also won the first stage.
ATV Raisvydas Kancius also crossed the finish line. The Lithuanian, who performed well, showed good stability. After setting the eleventh time for a long time, Laisvydas seemed to have no chance of falling or getting up, but then his opponents lost many minutes. As a result, L. Kancius finished 10th.
Race circuit:
1 pm 40 min. Antanas Juknevičius also crosses the finish line (04:22:39). Their position: 34. The Lithuanians finished the race side by side: E. Juškauskas lost his position and is 33rd.
1 pm 30 minutes. E. Juškauskas finishes the third stage 32nd. His time is 4 hours 14 minutes 49 seconds. Edwin was 57 minutes and 10 seconds behind the winner.
13 h 20 min. L. Kancius loses the ninth position in 30 seconds to finish. Does not matter! Tenth place is a great result for a Dakar debut with an ATV. He covered the distance in five and a half hours and was more than an hour behind the winner, N. Cavigliasso.
13 val. 2 minutes. E. Juškauskas WP9 33rd result. A very changing career for Edwin. Besides the problems, it could have been even better.
12 val. 52 min. No one will beat B. Vanags’ result: 15th place is fixed. This is the same position as in the second stage. Benedict should make significant progress toward overall and higher ranking.
12 val. 45 min. After WP8 E. Juškauskas 37th, A. Juknevičius 40th. Result of G. Petra WP7 – 40th.
12 val. 40 min. L. Kancius demonstrates unprecedented heights. While his rivals faced difficulties, the Lithuanian, who was driving at his own pace, broke into ninth position. The end of ATV is coming soon.
12 pm 26 min. B. Vanagas is ending! The position will continue to change, but the Lithuanian crossed the line in eleventh position. The distance was covered in 3 hours 44 minutes 1 second. It seems that the Lithuanian will maneuver on the border of fifteen.
12 val. 5 minutes. Trio of the winners of the third stage car category: N. Al-Attiyah, H. Lategan (+00: 02: 27), S. Peterhansel (+00: 04: 05)
12 val. B. Hawk wasted a lot of valuable time somewhere. The Lithuanian reached WP10 23 minutes behind the leader. Difference from the previous point – 5 minutes.
There is still time to go, but the Lithuanian is likely to drop from 11th place.
11 val. 56 min. It is a bit worrying that we have to wait for the results of B. Vanags. The end is not easy either. Here the experienced S. Loeb lost up to 6 minutes from WP10 to the leader’s goal.
Possibly everything is cozy with the wind that G. Petrus spoke of.
11 a. M. 40 min. Arūnas Gelažninkas crosses the finish line. The distance was covered in 4 hours 13 minutes. The Lithuanian, 40 minutes behind winner Toby Price, finished 40th.
11 val. 30 minutes. Benedict Vanagas lost his position in the top ten and slid to 12th position (WP8 +00: 18:48).
Completed by N. Al-Attiyah and S. Peterhansel. The former beat the Frenchman by up to four minutes. It seems we have a winner.
11 val. 12 min. ATVs are bad too. L. Kancius (+00: 41: 19) has a chance to catch up with his rivals in 9-10 places. They are only 5 and 2 minutes away.
A. Gelažninkas has another WP remaining and will remain to reach the finish line. The data shows that the rider did not get lost anywhere, but failed to climb from 39th position.
11 val. 4 min. We speak. A. Juknevičius also missed and took 44th place. G. Petrus took advantage of that – after WP3 he jumps to 34th position (+00: 20: 28).
11 val. B. The hawk remains stable. After 235 kilometers, the Lithuanian registers the ninth result. Our leader is 16 minutes behind the leader. This is not as big of a difference as it was in the first two stages.
At the top is N. Al-Attiyah, approaching his second consecutive victory. S. Peterhansel and H. Lategan should take a serious trump card in an attempt to overtake a Cathar at that rate.
10 val. 39 min. Vanagas shares are slowly declining, but the position remains high: the Inbank Toyota Gazoo Racing Baltics is in eleventh place after covering 217 kilometers.
Directed by N. Al-Attiyah. H. Lategan, representative of the Republic of South Africa, was almost three minutes away from him. S. Peterhansel is only 16 seconds behind the second.
E. Juškauskas probably missed … From WP2 to WP3, the Lithuanian lost up to 22 minutes off the leader and Kolkas is 36th. If A. Juknevičius makes no mistakes, he should overtake his compatriot.
10 val. 26 min. After 292 kilometers, A. Gelažninkas is 39, WP5 L. Kancius is still 11. Gintas Petrus WP2 44, A. Juknevičius 37, E. Juškauskas 34.
10 val. 8 min. B. Hawk is dancing in the top ten! After traveling 183 kilometers, the Lithuanian avoided mistakes and probably passed many who followed the road of C. Sainz. 13 minutes behind leader N. Al-Attiyah B. Hawk, Benedict ranks ninth.
9 val. 58 min. Among the main letters, N. Al-Attiyah, S. Peterhansel, and S. Loebo turned aside.
E. Juškauskas (31st) and A. Juknevičius (32nd) reach WP2. A. Gelažninkas WP6 is still 39, L. Kancius is more than half an hour behind the leader at the fourth point, but still 11.
9 pm 49 min. A big mistake by C. Sainz! The Spanish came out so badly that he lost 30 minutes of the leader. Not only him, but also leader Y. Al Rajhi is wrong at 156 kilometers.
9 val. 42 min. B. Vanagas arrived at WP3 on the 14th (+00: 09: 08). He’s four minutes behind the top ten.
9 val. 38 min. A. Gelažninkas is the 39th to cover 217 kilometers (+00: 18: 29). L. Kancius remains 11th after WP3 and 10 minutes behind 10, 19 minutes behind the leader.
Soon we will get the results of B. Vanags from WP3. The fastest corner here was C. Sainz, behind him Y. Al Rajhi (+25 sec.), N. Al-Attiyah (+52 sec.).
9 val. 20 minutes. The first WP1 is the result of E. Juškauskas and A. Juknevičius. The former was faster and currently ranks 26 (+00: 04: 13). Kreda’s crew is ranked 35.
E. Juškauskas also edged S. Petehanselis in the first point, which is now just 29 in WP1. It is true that the Frenchman at the next point was already faster and was a bit in the top ten.
9 val. 15 minutes. B. Hawk no longer mentions the steps of the top ten. The Lithuanian crew is 13 years old, has traveled 88 kilometers, but it should fall. The Inbank Toyota Gazoo Racing Baltics is more than five minutes behind leader Al Rajhi, and China’s 10th-ranked Han Chinese is one minute and 32 seconds away.
9 val. 2 minutes. A. Gelažninkas beats WP4, but his position drops slightly. The Lithuanian is now 37th and 16 minutes behind the leader.
The teams of Edvinas Juškauskas / Aisvydas Paliukėnas and Antanas Juknevičius / Darius Vaičiulis also moved from the starting line in the car class.
8 val. 49 min. It is too early to draw conclusions, but there are many surprises in WP1.
B. Hawk is separated from the top ten by 52 seconds, which is a good result. Sainz is 2 minutes from leader Lategan and Al-Attiyah a minute and a half.
S. Peterhansel, who reached the WP2 point, fell even lower. He lost about a minute from C. Sainz.
8 val. 44 min. B. Hawk captures his first time. The question arises: is the Lithuanian so good or S. Peterhansel so bad today, because the Inbank Toyota Gazoo Racing Baltics team is faster than one of the leaders in the Dakar?
The Lithuanian is more than 3 minutes behind leader H. Lategan and is ranked 12th.
8 val. 34 min. A. Gelažninkas has already covered 137 kilometers and is still 34th (+00: 11: 05).
L. Kancius doesn’t miss the 11th time either, but from 10th position WP2 has already separated him for almost 4 minutes.
8 val. 18 min. B. Vanagas starts in the car class from the beginning. The Lithuanian, who was ranked 15 yesterday, starts today from this position. Leaders who started before him have already reached WP1.
It is interesting that Y. Al Rajhi recorded 1 time, followed by M. Serradori (+22 sec.). Annual leaders N. Al-Attiyah, S. Peterhansel, C. Sainz will still have time to recover.
8 val. 11 min. A. Gelažninkas successfully passes another milestone. The lag behind the leader doubles (+00: 08: 20), but the driver does not lose his position and runs 35º.
7 val. 52 min. L. Kancius came in 11th place in their first leg, but the gap to leader A. Giroudas was 4 minutes this time. That is a better result than yesterday. The distance of 9, 10 positions is even less.
7 val. 35 min. A. Gelažninkas records his first time after 43 kilometers. The rider has not changed position since the start: he runs 34th, 4 minutes behind leader K. Benavides.

Motorcycles – Arūnas Gelažninkas – 6 pm 58 min.
ATVs – Laisvydas Kancius – 7 pm 9 min. 30 seconds.
