The Dakar organizer ASO changed the results of the motorbikes some minutes before. Cyril Despres and Marc Coma - and also other KTM- and Husqvarna drivers - got a penalty of 15 minutes, rumours are talking about a penalty for changing the KTM-engines.
Meanwhile also the trucks finished the stage. Italian Miki Biasion adds a second victory to the roll of honour for the Dakar 2012 ahead of Hans Stacey (20 Seconds (!) behind) and Gerard De Rooy (54s!).
In the general standings, De Rooy now has a lead of 47:32 minutes over his nearest pursuer: His team-mate Stacey. Artur Ardavichus (4th, +8:54) has now driven his Kamaz into third place after the withdrawal of the Czech Ales Loprais (Tatra). He trails De Rooy by 01:06:40 hours.
