 | Sealine Rally Qatar: Mini´s Al Rajhi retired, Al Mutaiwei holds 3rd overall.
|
Following the third leg of Qatar’s Sealine Cross Country Rally, Mini All4 Racing driver Khalifa Al Mutaiwei still holds third position in the overall standings, ahead of Jean-Louis Schlesser.
Finishing fourth in today’s leg was enough for Al Mutaiwei (UAE) and his navigator Andreas Schulz (GER) for defending their lead over Schlesser.
Meanwhile, the Russians Ilya Kuznetsov and Roman Elagin crossed the finish line in seventh position, with their BMW X3CC. The private BMW X3CC of the Czech Zapletal/Janacek had to stop with technical problems today.
Saudi Arabia’s Yazeed Al Rajhi and his Portuguese co-driver Filipe Palmeiro rolled their Mini All4 Racing and was forced into early retirement, due to the incident. Al Rajhi had won yesterday’s special stage and held second position in the overall standings.
Al Mutaiwei opted for a somewhat conservative approach for today’s penultimate leg to not lose time due to a puncture or other problems. Therefore, he had to settle for being only the fourth-fastest, today - but succeeded in keeping Schlesser, his toughest rival in the battle for the FIA World Cup title, at bay. Kuznetsov also completed the third special stage without encountering any problems.
