Men hadde liten lyst til å kjøre den siste etappen.

Del på Facebook

Det var lenge usikkert om det ble noe kjøring i ørkenrallyet Abu Dhabi fredag. Sandstormer har nemlig herjet i området der etappen skulle kjøres, og derfor var sikten svært dårlig gjennom ørkenen.

Utøverne mente det var uforsvarlig å kjøre i slike ekstreme forhold, men arrangøren mente de hadde full kontroll på sikkerheten, og valgte dermed å gjennomføre konkurransen.

På Anders Ullevålseter startet etappen som femtemann, men kjørte seg bra opp og avsluttet rallyet med etappeseier. Dette var nok til å sikre tredjeplassen i sammendraget.

- Jeg hadde ikke tenkt å presse meg til å kjøre fortere enn nødvendig, men jeg var nok heldig. Jeg startet som femtemann ut og kunne jage på de foran meg. Det må ha vært umulig å ligge i front. Jeg er overrasket, men svært fornøyd med å vinne etappen. Sanddyner og sandstorm ser ut til å fungere for meg, sa Ullevålseter.

Spanske Marc Coma vant løpet sammenlagt, mens franske Cyril Despres fulgte like bak på andreplass.
