After stage twelve, in which Tomáš Vrátný injured his wrist and bent the steering arm after an accident on a large sand dune, the two hardest “sand stages” awaited our team. With the injured hand and damaged vehicle, the MAXXXcasino team decided to race the demanding stages “safely”.
… quite possibly they were also saving their strength until they reached the depot, where the crew received full beauty treatment before the final speed test :)
RACE COMPLETED! AND HOW DID IT END?
The MAXXXcasino team finished well in eleventh place. Success? Disappointment? These rallies are not only about the final rankings. They are tough tests of the technology used in the racing specials, human determination and will. The extremely demanding nature of such races, which the vast majority of us cannot even imagine, radically changes ordinary competition values. Victory, as we ordinarily perceive it, becomes a relative term here.
Everybody who reached the finishing line of the Silk Way Rally can congratulate themselves and deserves admiration from all of us.
This is why twelfth place is undoubtedly a success and we would like to thank the boys not only for their great driving, but also for enabling us to virtually participate in the rally at the MAXXXcasino website.
Thank you for again supporting the MAXXXcasino team and we hope that you will become our permanent fans, not only in future rallies…
Thank you for your attention, good luck and always have the MAXXX fun
