Impressive Opening Stage Performances From Rodrigues And Van Beveren At Merzouga Rally

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Enjoying a highly positive first full day of #rally #racing in the dunes of Morocco, the Yamalube #yamaha Official #rally Team saw both its riders earn top three results at #merzouga Rally's stage one. Putting his navigational skills to good use Portuguese rider #helderrodrigues earned a runner-up result with his teammate #adrienvanbeveren closely following in third position.

Effectively battling their way through a day of tricky navigation, Rodrigues and Van Beveren each got a taste of what lies ahead in the five-stage adventure to the finish of #merzouga #rally 2016. Being the 10th rider to leave the start, Rodrigues made a series of passes to eventually complete his run in a time of 2:50:46 - a little more than two minutes behind the stage's fastest rider Stefan Svitko.

Adrien Van Beveren remained calm and focused even when faced with the challenging navigation during the day's stage. Loosing precious time trying to locate a waypoint, the Frenchman reached the finish line having posted the third fastest time of the day

Kicking off early tomorrow morning stage two of the 2016 #merzouga #rally will see riders start their day with a short 31 km special test in dunes, before moving on to contest a second test of 150 km. A total of 341 kilometres will be run for stage two.
