Dakar 2015 Stage 11 - One step closer to being champion
Dakar Rally is coming to an end soon, with Marc Coma, Paolo Goncalves and Toby Price being the top 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively in the overall standings. Coma is now another step closer to taking the seat. The KTM rider was just 5 minutes away from his biggest rival, Goncalves. However, Goncalves was given a penalty time of 15 minutes for swapping engine on his bike. This, then gave Coma a huge benefit. KTM mentioned that they hope that they would complete the race without any engine change. Coma is now leader Goncalves with 21 minutes time difference.
