Straight from Juazeiro do Norte (CE) – With only three seconds difference, and only two stages to go, Carlos Sainz and Nasser Al-Attiyah say that they are a team, but cant hide the desire to win the Brazilian race.
Alternating victories along the race, today was Sainzs turn to win, only 1min38 ahead of Nasser. Their difference in the general classification is practically inexistent, but Nasser leads with three secons advantage.
Carlos and I are from the same team. Whoever wins the race, Volkswagen will also win. But I sure do want to win. It is the first time I drive the Touareg, and the first time I race in Brazil, so it will be very nice to win here, said Nasser, who starts second tomorrow. According to him, this is better.
With such small difference, Carlos wants to recover in the last specials. Ill start the race and I expect everything goes all right. Yesterday, we ended up loosing too much time due to temperature problems, and we had to stop many times, what has held us back. Now, were trying to recover, said the Spanish pilot.
Im happy. Its going to be an interesting day tomorrow, lets see what happens, finalized Nasser.
