Eighth in the stage from Al Henakiyah to Al Duwadimi, Carlos Sainz rocketed to the top of the overall. The Audi driver is a few minutes ahead of Yazeed Al Rajhi and Sébastien Loeb.

"Opening the road was no easy task today because the navigation was complicated. We drove near De Mevius for a while, we overtook him, then we had a flat and he moved back ahead of us. Then we overtook him again… All in all, I'm pleased with the car. We'll see where it goes from here, this was just the second stage."
