Fears
We have so much respect to the race because
Dakar is a race you never know where is the trap stage or where you can make a mistake
We are very few people, and have no ability
to react if we hit the car hard, therefore we must be really careful...
especially at the pace we are running lately to face our rivals.We've raised the pace and...
we are afraid to hit or dump the car, not to destroy it
but to be unable to react back to repair the car
not having sufficient resources to stay alive in the race.
This creates a tension that is certainly bothering. But overall, stages of dunes are where you
can lose the rally or win it, but it is easier to lose it.
Therefore we should get cought the minimum possible
Basically, we fear to give the car an unfortunate blow.
