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.” According to Dina Sergijenko, a journalist from Delfi.lt working on the rally, the crews of Antanas Juknevičius and Darius Vaičiulis also solved technical problems.

On the second day of the marathon, those who have saved their equipment will rejoice. As they travel miles over sandy and rocky terrain, participants will be rewarded with some of the most spectacular images in the country.

Organizers say if it’s ever worth looking away from the road book, this speed section will be dedicated to that.

While driving towards Neom, participants will approach the Jordanian border, dominated by red rocks and red sand dunes.
