On the third day of the rally, 6 Lithuanian teams continue their performance. Motorcyclist Arūnas Gelažninkas was the first to start at the starting line of the speed section (6.58 am Lithuanian time), followed by Laisvydas Kancius, representative of the quad stand (7.09 am).
Benediktas Vanagas, Inbank Toyota Gazoo Racing Baltics team leader, was the first priority driver to request a repositioning and move up to the starting list. He started from 23rd place on Monday instead of 32nd.
Before the start of the third day of the rally, Antanas Juknevičius and Darius Vaičiulis (Kreda) were already pulling the Joker out of their pocket.
The rider made no secret that he was exercising this right one day too late, as he had to bitterly regret it on the track on Monday. “The risk of driving in a pile is slower, you have to bend down, you can’t see through the dust. Today we crashed the car, we doubled the fork, we had to change the wheels when we decided to take a risk and bend in a difficult place” said A. Juknevičius The Kreda crew, which finished 40th on Monday, will continue the rally from 36th on Tuesday morning.
Before getting into the SUV, B. Vanagas said that in today’s 400km speed section, he talks about future possibilities to press the speed pedal more boldly.
“It’s not very small, on the other hand, it would be strange to expect short stages when you get to Dakar. Generally, the shorter the path, the more viscous it is. I think that in the next 400 km we will have the opportunity to drive fast, ”said B. Vanagas, happy that his well-being is really good after the night.
