00:00Daniel, congratulations. What's the last stage? Tell us.
00:05No, it's hard to describe what just happened or what just did.
00:11I give my best today from the start to the finish.
00:16I never stopped dreaming. I never stopped believing.
00:19And I said to all my people around, I don't know why, but I still feel it's possible.
00:23I still believe I can win and it's going to go my way, I said before.
00:28And yeah, I pushed till the end and the last three kilometers Ricky took a wrong piece.
00:36I took the good one, but I saw a light coming back and at the beginning I didn't know it was him.
00:45And then I slowed down and I saw that was him and he had to come back all the way
00:50because it was not possible to cut in the middle between the piece.
00:54So he lost some time there and I just saw the opportunity and I took it.
01:00Some days you felt not so good at the end of the stage.
01:03How was it today when you wake up this morning?
01:06How did you feel? You feel ready for it?
01:09Yeah, I felt ready all day. I say to everyone in the start of the race.
01:17This Dakar is for me coming from an injury from Morocco and with all the ups and downs you can have.
01:25No, no, no, no. It's for my team also. They deserve this because they support me all these years.
01:40Nine years in Dakar already. First time as a winner with my history with my brother.
01:46He won by 43 seconds. I won by two. So I think I beat him on that.
01:51And now it's a dream come true.
01:54The first week was not so easy. The rest did. Did you still believe that you could change everything on the last second week?
02:04Yes. Yes. I think that was the key of my Dakar. I never stopped dreaming. I never stopped believing in myself.
02:11I believe that was possible. Even yesterday when I saw that the chances were already slipping out from my way.
02:20And then maybe I was going to, yeah, it was going to be almost impossible to pass Ricky today and put another minute in front of him.
02:29It was mathematically almost impossible. But after the stage yesterday, when I was in the liaison, I said to myself,
02:37I did everything good and I'm going to finish strong for me because I did everything.
02:43And it's unreal. I don't know. I think everything happened for a reason.
02:49And today is one of those days and two seconds after two weeks and almost 8,000 kilometers.
02:58It's something that is hard to understand.
03:01You proved that you can dream till the end and strategy is not all.
03:06Because Ricky did a lot of strategy during the last week. And at the end, you were always full gas.
03:11Don't thinking about the classification, the position at the start. So you were right.
03:17Yeah, like I said to everyone, this Dakar, I think about no one. I just think about myself and what I can do, what I can control.
03:25And no strategy for me was not strategy any days. I just give my best and this is all I can do.
03:32I never try to slow down and I think of course. I feel bad for Ricky. He did a mistake and costed Dakar.
03:39Dakar is like this.
03:41Dakar is like this.
03:42Dakar looks so happy for you, huh?
04:00And Dakar is super happy. Now he has to come to Argentina for the big party.
04:03What's going on the big party?
