Strong wind prevented the helicopter from taking off. Carlos Sainz and Lucas Cruz (both ESP) in the MINI John Cooper Works Buggy were fastest at this point, and consequently picked up their fourth stage win of this year\u2019s rally. Second place went to Jakub \u201cKuba\u201d Przygonski (POL) and Timo Gottschalk (GER) in the MINI JCW Rally. Orlando \u201cOrly\u201d Terranova and Bernardo \u201cRonnie\u201d Graue (both ARG) ended the stage in eighth place. St\u00e9phane Peterhansel (FRA) and Paulo Fiuza (POR) were tenth.<\/p>\n<p>Navigation was particularly tough in the first part of the special stage, and the early crews had problems finding the right route. Sainz and Przygonski came through without any major issues and made up a lot of time on the opposition. Sainz now has a lead of more than 18 minutes over second-placed Nasser Al-Attiyah. Although Peterhansel dropped time on his team-mates in the Bahrain JCW X-raid Team, he did manage to close the gap on Al-Attiyah and now trails the Qatari by just 16 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Sainz set the fastest times from the word go and benefitted from finding the correct route at a difficult waypoint later on in the stage. \u201cThe sandstorm meant visibility was initially limited and there were a few dangerous places, where you could easily have rolled,\u201d said the Spaniard. \u201cOtherwise, it was a very good day for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Przygonski and Gottschalk are improving all the time. After yesterday\u2019s second place, they finished an excellent second today. \u201cThat was far from an easy stage, with many steep dunes,\u201d said the Pole. \u201cWe paced ourselves well, in order to be able to drive slowly over the crests of the dunes without getting stuck. We followed Carlos Sainz for a while and were able to match his pace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At first, it looked as though Peterhansel might end the day in the top three. However, they then lost a lot of time as a result of the difficult navigation. Despite this, it was still not a bad day for the Frenchman. \u201cIt was a tough stage with many difficult dunes,\u201d said Peterhansel. \u201cTogether with Nasser and some other drivers, we went completely wrong a few kilometres before the neutralisation. In the end, however, it was a good day for my Bahrain JCW X-raid team-mate Carlos, who was able to pull further clear of Nasser, while we were able to close the gap on him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After the crews have spent the night without their team, they return to Haradh tomorrow. The eleventh leg begins with a 45-kilometre liaison stage, followed by 379 kilometres against the clock. The crews must then complete a further 320 kilometres to the bivouac.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dakar Rally\u00a0\u2013 Result SS10*<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>1. C. Sainz (ESP) \/ L.
