The Dakar becomes a joke!! The officials only have eyes on French drivers, you know, in the begin stages of the Dakar, they didn't even say that Robby could have won the 2 first stages, due to stopping to help Nassar...
They turn the news like they want, they manipulate the truth ...like they always do!!
French idiots...even not to tell about Despres...what a weener!

you need to realize no one likes americans in the dakar but american fans. europeans and french do not want an american winner. Can you imagine if robby pushed the biker in the river? the aso would have bought the ticket to fly him home.

here is a weird question, and i am sure that someone has all ready brought this up. why hasn't the Dakar officials said anything to Robby or Nassar after he won 2 stages? Hell Nassar was freaking fast in the hummer. so why not check his hummer? just a thought?

if they did not give Peckerhansel an penalty for ruining that motorcycle in the river they are not gonna do anything about failing to give way,,, Also they gave Depres his time back for getting stuck in the mud, that A hole left the guy who helped him pleading,,,,,they should have given everyone who got stuck but him there time back..,,,,,,,,,,,,,The Spirit Of The Dakar,,,,Guess that means favoring the French

not to sound like a typical American. But if you ever hear Carol Shelby talk about the 24 hrs of LeMans when they were winning with the Cobras. The french changed the rules the very next year to try and slow down the Cobras. Of course after the Cobras won again they changed the rules again. this is what the French do. NOt sure why but, they really don't like American's winning a race created by them. That is just my feeling. as for Robby i say, give them hell and kick there a$$. Gas On Robby and make PeckHead's life hell.

illegal modification
The stewards found through a technical inspection on Tuesday, an adaptation of the ventilation and bandenvulsysteem. The system is linked to his engine, and could be used to provide additional air into the engine to bring. This improves combustion, which makes the car faster. According to the organization, the system is not permitted and therefore Gordon suspended.

occupation
Gordon denies that the system on his car illegally. The car, he said the current system simply by the technical inspection has come. The Hummer driver is therefore against the disqualification in invoked. This appeal must be submitted to the FIA in Paris, what will happen within three weeks.
