Dakar Daily Updates -- Stages 8 and 9

2007 Dakar Rally Daily Updates -- Stages 8 and 9

The 2007 Dakar Rally is upon us, and the media outlet that we were expecting to bring daily podcast updates, well, hasn't.  So in the spirit of better-late-than-never, we're going to do it!

---

This show covers a brief overview of the action before the rest stage (after stage 7), as well as race coverage from stages 8 and 9.  If you're saving yourself for the TV coverage, BE SURE to carefully note which stage we're covering in a given show!! In most cases, our show will publish the day BEFORE Versus airs TV coverage for the stage (yes, Virginia, you may be a day behind the times and not even have known it).


Elmer Symons was involved in a fatal racing accident on Stage 4.  He will be sorely missed.  Ride on, Elmee.  Ride on.
