Al-Attiyah wins third stage

Nasser Al-Attiyah claimed a narrow triumph in Monday's third special stage of the Dakar Rally to close on overall leader Carlos Sainz.

Al-Attiyah (BMW), who won on day one, completed the 695km Puerto Madryn-Ingeniero Jacobacci stage in four hours 29 minutes and 27 seconds, with Sainz following him home only 35 seconds back in his Volkswagen.

The Qatari driver has reduced the time deficit in the overall standings to only 3mins 40secs on Sainz.
