2016 @Dakar: High Temperatures challenge @Yamaha's #Riders on Shortened Second #Marathon Stage


Dakar Rally's second marathon stage has been half-completed under high temperatures in Argentina. Today's stage was shortened due to extreme weather conditions, a recurring theme during this 2016 competition. The four Yamaha riders and their WR450F Rally units have been greatly challenged by the heat but did a good job and climbed up a few places in the general classification. Yamalube Yamaha Official Rally Team's Hélder Rodrigues and Alessandro Botturi classified in ninth and twelfth position in today's stage, whilst Yamalube Yamaha Junior Rally Team's Adrien Van Beveren and Xavier De Soultrait crossed the finish line in seventh and eleventh respectively.
