Joan Pedrero leads the Dakar
By Team TMX on 3rd Jan 17
Joan Pedrero has had a magnificent start to the Dakar by winning the first stage between Asuncion and Resistancia. Xavier de Soultrait had the best scratch time but was handed a penalty giving victory to Soultrait.
It was a great day for Joan, who was very motivated in the morning. After a superb race where he attacked constantly, he beat Brabec by 12 seconds.
Today's 2nd stage (Tuesday), will be between Resistancia - San Miguel de Tucuman (803 km with a 275 km special).
