Steady progress for Daniel Sanders



Daniel Sanders remains well clear on top of the standings at the conclusion of Stage Five of the 2025 Dakar Rally.

While only finishing 12th on the stage, none of his closest overall competitors made inroads in chasing down his lead with Tosha Schareina still seven minutes and two seconds behind.

In a post on his Facebook page, Sanders said he opened the stage and had a good day collecting time bonuses.

“I was able to widen my overall lead on my closest pursuers,” he said.

“Tomorrow we have a much-deserved rest day.”
