Dakar 2026 - Stage 4 - Interview: DANIEL SANDERS

"It was a really demanding stage. I started in third position. I made some silly mistakes in the navigation. After the refuel, I tried to push and make up time. I felt better in the last half. The bike's okay. There was a lot of rocks. I tried to protect my tyres. We'll see what happens tomorrow."
