According to the co-driver of the team Anton Vlasyuk on Instagram, the crew dropped out of the competition.
“We drove along the track.
This was the organizer's trap - and many crews got lost.
One of them was driving in the forehead of the canal, jumped out from behind the mountain, and we had a head-on collision, ”wrote Vlasyuk.
According to him, it is impossible to restore the car after such a collision, and the navigator of the other crew, most likely, has a broken spine.
“They called a helicopter.
We are waiting for support, ”Vlasyuk added.
Earlier, France did not rule out the cancellation of the Dakar rally due to the threat of terrorism.
