After the rest day, today's going wrong with sporting a 477 km stage. On the weekend has now been clarified how it came to the exclusion of the Kamaz with the start number 500. At the 5th Stage has been as Eduard Nikolaev a private Toyota Land Cruiser driven, which was certainly not intentional and therefore not sufficient as a reason for exclusion should. But now came out that Nikolaev had incurred in the accident was a tire failure. For the repair, the team has requested a time extension while they "forgot" to mention how it came to the damage, so it was the accident at all.

Today's stage began in the very long second overall on his KTM's Marc Coma. A few kilometers after the start, he discovered that has formed on the route just a big mud hole and circumnavigated it in order not to get stuck in it. His pursuer, teammate and overall leader Cyril Depres has not recognized this problem on the track, however, and goes completely clean in the mud. It throws him from the machine got stuck and he ends up "soft" in the mud. The same fate goes back Paulo Concalves few meters behind him. Together, they heave the machine from depression in the mud, but the drivers have no chance. Freed when the plane of depression is depression runs immediately without further! Concalves to help. However, depression signaled his backpack rider Ruben Faria, that this help should Concalves, Faria misunderstands the statement again and continue as well. Concalves have no choice but to wait for help from the officials. At the end of the stage, the teams complain, because the trap was not recorded in the road book. As officials admit their mistake (although the mud hole probably just before the start of the stage was) and because they have diverted all of the following driver to get the mud victims a time extension. This again was not funny Marc Coma, which provides new tensions in the KTM-tam. Coma wins today's stage, and thus leads to the overall depression before, but with credit for time 1min26sek by the depression, just barely. Second Pal Anders Ullevalsetter is, third Ruben Faria, depression is as 7th Evaluated. He apologizes for the way, then Concalves. Daniel Schroeder is fighting continued slowly forward, the 8th Stage he stopped at the 25th Place and ends up in the overall standings to 30th place

Out of luck today once more first wet Al-Attiyah is a V-belt and then it stops the alternator. After he changed the alternator and his navigator and located 18 minutes einhandelte loss, he goes more brutal than ever. He manages the 18-minute shortened to only 8, but so are complaints from the other riders because of its brutal overtaking. The Dakarfahrzeuge have a so-called sentinel system so that an overtaking vehicle may announce his passing maneuvers on the vehicle ahead. Al-Attiyah overtaken its competitors but without using its Sentinel. According to the rules that's fine, it is a sentinel duty only when overtaking motor bikes and quads, but this is not a responsible way.
