“Today is probably one of the hardest days physically. I feel very tired. After just a couple of miles, a competitor dropped third from the motorcycle. Also, last year I fell close to this speed section.
These remaining memories did not allow for sudden entry. At first I didn’t find a rhythm. So I decided to drive calmly, slowly, because I thought that tomorrow is a rest day, it will be time to concentrate.
Only somehow after the refueling stop, after 200 km I came back to myself, a pace appeared and I drove at a good pace for the last 150 km. I am very happy that we managed to close the gap with leader Maurizio Gerini by about three minutes, “says Arūnas Gelažninkas.
As of Friday, half of the Dakar Rally remained. On Saturday, athletes will rest or repair their equipment.
“The main reason it was physically difficult was the dunes. There were many of them, they were complex, many athletes fell. He’s always driving while standing on those dunes, there has never been a rear position. But faina day, half of the rally is over, woohoo! “- the runner is happy.
The good news is that Arūnas is 43 minutes out of third place in the singles class. Therefore, to keep at least second place, more and more opportunities.
“It just came to our attention then. I will probably not ride the bike today, I will try to recover physically. And Saturday is scheduled for a full day of motorcycle work and I also plan to wear clothes. Anyway, the mocha looks healthy, you have to throw it on a preventive look at everything in its place, ”says Arūnas.
