British biker Sam Sunderland produced a superb ride on Thursdays Stage 11 to give himself a chance of victory on Fridays final 2021 Dakar Rally stage as Nasser Al-Attiyah reduced St phane Peterhansels car lead and teenager Seth Quintero won another stage in Saudi Arabia.

- 2017 champion Sunderland has kept plugging away at Argentine Kevin Benavides overall bike lead and he won todays stage to cut the deficit to just 4m12s.
- Sunderland, 31, who drew level with Benavides overall at one point, revealed: I knew that today was one of my last chances to try to win. I gave my all, all day. I didnt manage to take quite enough time, but Im happy.
Nasser Al-Attiyah and Matthieu Baumel
- Australian rookie Daniel Sanders finished fourth with 2018 champion Matthias Walkner fifth, Slovakian Stefan Svitko eighth, Spaniard Laia Sanz 19th and Frances Camille Chapeliere 29th heading to the last stage.
- Sanders, 26, who could still claim a podium spot, added: It was a really cool stage, my favourite one so far. There was lots of variety and it was really difficult. Im in a good position on my first Dakar.
Daniel Sanders
- Qatars Al-Attiyah, who won the opening prologue, has now added a fifth stage win to his 2021 tally nevertheless he still remains 15m05s behind Peterhansel in his quest for a fourth Dakar title.
- Peterhansel finished second to boost his chance of a record 14th title, while reigning champion Carlos Sainz was third including an extra blast of desert sun when the roof of his MINI Buggy was removed
Stephane Peterhansel and Edouard Baulanger
- Al-Attiyah, 50, explained: Im really happy to be here on day 11 without any technical problems with the car. Theres still one stage to go and we will see what the next day brings.
- In the Lightweight Vehicle category, rookie Quintero powered to another stage victory by an impressive 12m13s margin over Chilean Chaleco Lopez - who extended his overall lead - as Quinteros fellow Red Bull Off-Road Junior Team driver Cristina Guti rrez of Spain finished 30 minutes back on the day.
Giniel de Villiers
- American Quintero, 18, said: Today went absolutely amazing. Our plan was to pick cars off all day and run smooth and thats exactly what we did. We end up as the first over the line and the first on time. It blows my mind how well this Red Bull Off-Road Junior Team works.
- Finally in the truck category, Russian Anton Shibalov grabbed his second stage victory with a 4m13s gap to compatriot Ayrat Mardeev with Andrey Karginov fourth and Dmitry Sotnikov fifth as Sotnikov holds a huge 39m58s advantage over Shibalov overall.
