THE EYE OF THE EXPERT
***from www.darbaroud.com
Founder and director of MDS, Patrick Bauer, gives his daily impression of how the race is going.
At the end of the first three days the competitors are exhausted. There's a record number of retirements:
122 for the first three days (less than 50 for the whole course last year). It's due to a combination of high temperatures, strong winds and unusually high hygrometry levels (20% compared to the usual 6%). I also think the competitors are less well prepared this year compared to last.
As a result of these factors we reduced the length of today's stage and the level of difficulty involved by scratching the parts with very steep hill climbs and crossing of ergs.
