The runners leave the Sakaka bivouac and head towards Neomo. The organizers announce that in the speed section the road surface will be made up of sand (40%), solid soil (51%) and river beds (1%), the rest, asphalt.
On Sunday night, Edvinas Juškauskas and Aisvydas Paliukėnas had to work on their SUV as needed. Late at night, E. Juškauskas was happy on Facebook about the installation of the gearbox, “all that was left was to collect and test everything.”
In the morning, the team admitted that the work had not been completed that Sunday night. “Still we changed the hinge, it turned out that it was damaged. When we changed we saw that the fixing screws were bent, so today we will be careful not to break the hinge screws, because in that case we would lose the front wheel.
In short, Monday’s mission is to get to the bivouac so that the technicians can see everything normally, “wrote the team’s crew on Facebook.
