If VW is going to sit on the top 2 spots of the podium, let's hope is goes - 1st) Miller, 2nd) De Villiers, 3rd) Robby

No, no, no!!! That would make Miller the first American to win the Dakar --

If it can't be Gordon, Miller, De Villiers, then second best would be De Villiers, Gordon, Miller.

In any case, Robby is a winner.

Robby should be the first & he is a winner, I agree.
