The crew of Eduard Nikolaev, returning to the race as a contestant of a separate classification Dakar Experience, successfully overcame the seventh stage of the Dakar Rally today. After the finish of the Russian athletes, the final protocol contained erroneous data on the time of completing the special stage.
After the approach of KAMAZ-master team, the organizers amended the final statement and indicated the correct time, with which Nikolaev finished Sunday's racing day. Thus, the crew No 500 was the fourth on the seventh stage, behind the winner Andrey Karginov by 5 minutes 19 seconds.
As a reminder, Nikolaev’s results are not counted in the general truck classification of the Dakar 2020.
