After a turbulent first week: X-raid looks ahead with determination

The first week of the Dakar Rally is complete, and the crews can finally take a breather during the rest day in Riyadh.

But there is also plenty of work for drivers and navigators. They meet with engineers and mechanics and do interviews.
