I see Robbie Gordon's made a messs of it again!!
I bet the Mini teams are pissing themselves after what he's said about them!!
Americans don't do Humility do they.
The American guy Robbie Gordon in the hummer comes across as a wanker, so I enjoyed seeing him on his roof today. How are all the mini's doing so well? Hilux with a mini shell bolted on? |

Robbie in his Hummer came third today, Go Robbie Go, pitty he's had a bit of bad luck over the last few days.
Someone sticking it to a frog is doing good in my book.
The Aussies on the bikes are still doing okay, around 20th - 30th positions for a few of them.

As long as someone sticks it to the most despicable frog of all Cyril Despres, then i'll be happy. His display in last years Dakar showed the true quality of this arrogant @#$%!!
Hopefully his bike blows up and he's stuck in the desert for days

They have been going for seven days now, still six Aussies going on bikes. The best at the moment in 17th overall is Faggettor 42 min and 53 sec behind the leader. Ben Grabham is in 21st 1:11:24 behind. Next of the Aussies is Strange in 35th 2:15:36 behind the leader. That Paul Smith on the Quad is 13th in class 4:00:09 behind the leader. In the cars there are still three Aussies going. Robbie Gordon came third again today, Go Robbie Go.

Nathan, what are you doing? Despres has had a good day and is in the lead and Grbham has had a bad day and fallen back a way!

Maybe i'd better build a better voodoo doll!! Bad luck for Grabbo, but on the plus side Joan Barreda made up fifteen spots in one day after winning the stage!!! One more day like that and he will be in contention! |
