INFORMATION FROM SERVICE HALT AFTER SS6
(Car No 1) Shk Khalid Al Qassimi / Khalid Al Kindi (UAE)
"The stages are very bumpy. Half way through the last stage it felt like I had a flat tyre, but the tyres are ok. Maybe it's mechanical, possibly the drive shaft. We're checking it now."
(Car No 2) Shk Suhail Al Maktoum / Wael Murjan (UAE)
"The car is not handling well. I've spun it three times today. The last few stages have been very fast. It's more like drag racing. The mechanical problem I have is probably the centre differential."
(Car No 3) Shk Abdullah Al Qassimi / Steve Lancaster (UAE / GB)
"One km into the SS4 I had gear problems. We had no fourth gear so I was going from third to fifth.
