“At first I dug all the dunes, then I fell, but still I did not come wrong,” he summarized. Arūnas Gelažninkas.

Preliminary in the fifth speed section A.Gelažninkas was third, leaving control ahead Roman Krejči and leader in Italy Maurizio gerini. The Lithuanians fell into the dunes today.

“At first, I was wrong when sailing, although the driving was really good. Later I made friends with the road book and caught up with my main competitors. It seemed that everything was going to be fine, but 50 km before the finish, I fell into the dunes. I didn’t get hurt, but I thought the other mocha hit me, but the airbags on my vest appear. I never had to wait, I drove for about 15 minutes with so much swelling. Like a robot, because of its impediment to movement, it could not move or bend its neck or arms normally. Then I lost another 3 minutes. The day was very long, finally I felt that the muscles did the work ”, considered the athlete.

According to the Lithuanian, the leader M.Gerini probably missed the crossroads, for which it is possible that he will receive a fine. This will only clear up at night. Arūnas can also be fined for speeding.

“I realized that I only overspeed after a while because the motorcycle machine did not beep. Normally, when there is a risk of speeding, the machine beeps very loudly and notifies you. It wasn’t until later in the road book that I saw that there was a speed limit. After falling, I stayed a bit behind and was overtaken by ATVs and cars. There was a lot of dust, this was not seen at all in the road book and the posted speed limits. Before reaching the bivouac, it froze, we have to warm up and rest ”, said the runner.

Comment from A.Gelažninkas:

According to preliminary data, the Lithuanian was 8 minutes and 47 seconds behind the lone leader. Five days later in singles class, Arūnas is second, Gerini is 7 minutes 14 seconds away. In the general #ZigmasDakarteam motorcycle ranking, the rider is in 31st place.
