During the fourth stage of the Rallye du Maroc, Erik van Loon and Hein Verschuuren drive a good test. In the dust, they go full out and that approach pays off. It would have been the third time in a strong field of competitors. The Can-Am proves that it is a serious contender for the future.
“The car is really fast and good,” Erik says. “It was another dusty day, but you can really push. We drive so much further back which makes it hard to really compete with the front of the field. But if we can ride in the top three even now, then you know it's good. It's fun to ride through the sand with this.”
Tomorrow the final 273-kilometer stage takes place. “It would be really nice if we can ride in the top three one more time, but above all we want to get to the finish. On to tomorrow!”
