00:09 You're living the whole year for the Dakar Rally, actually.
00:12 And when you're here, you realize where you do it for.
00:15 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:28 It's nice.
00:29 Yeah, when we fight with each other.
00:33 Yesterday, he overtook me.
00:35 He did in Sentinel, and he was faster.
00:37 And I said, hey, I don't like it.
00:43 I grew up with it.
00:44 I was always there in the workshop,
00:46 and I always sit in the chair like I
00:48 was dreaming on that moment.
00:51 When I was 38, I started my first Dakar in South America.
00:55 And one time, we were fourth in states and 12th overall.
00:59 And I was there driving the states with wooden shoes.
01:03 And when I come out, everybody was looking.
01:05 And that guy is crazy.
01:06 He's from Holland.
01:07 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:11 When I was 16, it was my first Dakar Rally.
01:13 I competed as a mechanic in a truck by my father.
01:17 He's driving for his third Dakar.
01:20 It's very special when you are 20.
01:22 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:25 When you are at the finish line, and you realize
01:27 you were the first one, yeah, that's amazing.
01:30 So he win the states, and I win overall.
01:33 So that day was a very special moment.
01:38 Overall, he is in a better position.
01:39 So that's the experience, I think.
01:44 We were many times in the top three.
01:47 But unfortunately, we had four punctures on the second day.
01:49 So we lost a lot of time there.
01:51 But yeah, that's the Dakar Rally.
01:53 Sometimes it's on your side, and sometimes it's on his side.
01:56 So now he was lucky.

02:01 It will be a very important week with Janus, Mitchell,
02:07 and me together to fight with one team, three trucks.
02:10 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:13 We are all independent.
02:14 But still, I want to help them if they
02:16 can achieve a win or a podium.
02:20 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:24 [INAUDIBLE]
02:26 The plan is that next year, I will fight one year
02:31 to each other.
02:32 And then the second year, I will drive in the race,
02:36 but help Mitchell to bring him to the podium.
