- Double Formula One world champion Fernando Alonso made a solid Dakar Rally debut in Saudi Arabia on Sunday and was 11th after the first 752km coastal stage from the port city of Jeddah to Al Wajh.
Lithuanian Vaidotas Zala was surprise fastest in the car category, the Mini JCW Rally driver ending the day with an advantage of two minutes and 14 seconds over France’s 13 times winner Stephane Peterhansel, in a Mini JCW Buggy. Spaniard Alonso, who left Formula One at the end of 2018 with his seat at McLaren taken by Sainz’s son and namesake, was 15 minutes and 27 seconds off the pace in his Toyota Hilux pickup.
“I don’t want to...quit after the second or third day because of a stupid mistake,” the 38-year-old had said before the start. “I have to approach it with a certain calmness.”Australian Toby Price, the reigning motorcycle champion for KTM, started where he finished the 2019 event with a stage win but only a five second advantage over American Ricky Brabec on a Honda after a two minute penalty.
