00:00There's got to be love, love and passion for these beauties of the past that have suffered
00:21during week one of Dakar Classic.
00:40Imagine taking on 3,000 kilometers of Saudi tracks and dunes.
00:44Imagine doing it in cars from the 80s.
00:47An ordeal, but also so much pleasure.
00:59There are no potholes or anything like that in the area.
01:02We don't really know why we damaged the car.
01:04Now we're looking to fix the wheel and carry on.
01:10And continue they did, but at their own survival pace.
01:14A pleasure for the eyes of fans is this Mercedes Class G, a replica of the car Jacqui X won the Dakar in.
01:21A journey, but also a competition.
01:24Marco Lefa in his Mitsubishi is having a ball, enjoying second spot overall.
01:29A regular of the classic Juan Moreira in his Porsche is also in the battle for glory.
01:34He knows how to do it. He won the race back in 2023.
01:38Driving a Tatra, Martin Stopper remains the leader in the truck class.
01:45And of course, there was drama during this first week.
01:50But also interesting encounters.
01:53Hello! Hi!
01:56Rocks, canyons, and sands. Lots of sand on the menu for the competitors of Dakar Classic.
02:05Thank you!
02:11Consistency has been the key in this regularity rally based on average speed.
02:16But Carolis Raisis knows that just too well.
02:19He leads the standings at the rest day.
02:23It went like one click.
02:25And now I'm here like a miracle.
02:27Like first in the play overall in the classics.
02:30And I won four stages from six.
02:33I'm so surprised.
02:36The Lithuanian in his Range Rover has an advantage of close to 100 points on Leva.
02:41The previous leader, Maxence Goublin, drops down to fourth position.
02:48I don't see why.
02:53I don't think the best as a hit Mageสinely act is under station, too.
02:57I hope an aqui back is that we have to keep her early in the fall.
02:59These soldiers permaneen really look right.
03:01And but look at, it's tremendous.
03:05Bekannt than this.
03:07We're back to 70 minutes.
03:10We looked at images in kind depending on what the world has to do over our society.
