with 100km of the stage to go. They played 'cat & mouse' for the rest of the stage and passed each other around 15 times across the dunes - now that's racing.
It was a great drive by

After two days in the desert and 547kms of 100% dunes, Seb and Fabian have won the 48h Chrono stage of Dakar 2024.🏆
Bravo Guys as we are now up to third overall.
There were thousands of crests and a million views all to take in over a truly breathtaking stage.

Roma roaming the dunes 🇸🇦
“It was a stage with so many different surfaces but the thing that was hardest was the sun in my eyes at the start because climbing dunes you have to angle your car over to one side to not look at the sun directly, but that’s all part of the adventure.”
Is there a better way to show you the sheer size of what Seb and Fabian saw today in their Prodrive Hunter?
A. Mazing.
The 48h Chrono stage is over two days of this terrain and tonight they are only part way through the 547 kms of dunes and 3rd on the stage.
